Water Wigs

A slice of photographic history, Water Wigs, the first ever images of their kind, become an internet sensation viewed by 4 million people in less than a week in 2012. It was a career marking series that I would like to immortalize on the blockchain. The images / process was featured in the media and on numerous TV shows around the world because of its unique in camera captures.

We found a bunch of awesome bald men and hurled water balloons at their heads, to capture the explosion of water at various intervals. The result a new head of of water hair! We used a laser and sound trigger to capture the right moments for each subject to create just the head of hair that fit best with the face. We chose to work with triads of colors to create images that are arresting and amusing at the same time. We feel the color helps transform the water into some more and adds greater visual interest. Our favorites are "The Don King," "The Conquistador," "The Jesus" and "The Friar."
