Humans Through Water
Photos and words by Deshan Tennekoon

An excerpt from an on-going series of 'anti-portraits' - pictures which deliberately obscure the character (and sometimes the features) of the sitter.

In this set, water is the tool of distortion.

The light seems viscous and languid; the bias of water and movement and bubbles of air make faces eerie, dreamlike and in some cases not entirely human.
