SCOTT MUTTER's SURRATIONAL IMAGES

Thanks to someone I discovered a nice photographic hint about the concept of
SURRATIONAL IMAGES. I have been sugested two websites: this one http://www.photographymuseum.com/mutter/scottmutterNewGallery.html
and this one http://www.uelsmann.net/ . Here are my two favourites:







Scott Mutter explains briefly what this is about [from his website] :
"For thirty years, Scott Mutter employed classic photomontage techniques to create a world of his own -- a more perfect world. The hallmark of Mutter's remarkable imagery is the distinct sense that the elements of each picture belong together, even though the combination may violate the laws of physics. These photographs, which Scott called "Surrational Images," have a poetic quality that invites highly personal interpretations.
They are provocative as well as evocative."
