Portrait Project Submission

 

Be a part of Karen Hochman Brown’s Portrait Project!

In the Portrait Project, Karen Hochman Brown turns the visages of her subjects into unique digitally synthesized artworks. Using the model of a music synthesizer, the software Hochman Brown employs is able to read visual information from a photograph in the same way a music synthesizer interprets a series of notes. The artist creates custom virtual-paintbrushes, changing settings of endless parameters that react to the visual reference. Brushstrokes are applied one by one based on information such as shape, color, orientation and luminance.
