Questioning Life – Surreal Self-Portraits by Manu Pombrol

Mon, Jan 3, 2011

Questioning the time, life, psychology and human evolution, the unique style of the Spanish artist Manu Pombrol’s work balance on the edge of photography and photo-manipulation. The photographer reveals a whole different world, dominated by the surrealism, where everything is made possible just for finding a sense of the world around us. Incredible creative, probably the most popular works of Manu Pombrol are the surreal self-portraits, in which the artist himself is questioning his reality. Although it’s not as imaginative and complicated as others, I particularly like the last photo I posted, revealing a damaged self-portrait of the artist, questioning himself “Who am I?”. This question searches for answers in all the photos. You can see more inspiring work on Manu Pombrol’s Flickr page.
