These are almost as impressive as the cinemagraphs I posted a few months back, these stunning multi-dimensional photographs by Ignacio Torres are real simple to make. Not to take away from Ignacio’s talent with the camera though, his photography is pretty impressive with the use of fairy dust – he creates these magical results and combines four images into an animated .gif file. Check out his work on the reverse, I obviously didn’t embed the animation in the image above!

Some words from Ignacio below:
“This project began from the theory that humans are made of cosmic matter as a result of a star’s death. I created imagery that showcased this cosmic birth through the use of dust and reflective confetti to create galaxies. The models’ organic bodily expressions as they are frozen in time between the particles suggest their celestial creation.
“In addition, space and time is heightened by the use of three-dimensional animated gifs. Their movement serves as a visual metaphor to the spatial link we share with stars as well as their separateness through time.”
“I created the images shooting the subject from four different angles,” he says, taking the pictures “all at the same time with a synched flash.” At the same time, he sprinkles a bit of dust and reflective confetti into the scene, and the result is magic.
