Incredible City Square Collage Photographs

created at: 12/30/2011

Photographer Adam Magyar captures bustling city squares teeming with crowds of people on the move….that don’t actually exist. Instead, each work is a composite of photos of individual people, shot from only a few feet about their heads.

   He describes the project, “The squares you see are non-existent. Each square is assembled from dozens of photos I took of people from a height of 3 or 4 meters. This distance, or rather, closeness allows me to create extremelely high-resolution images, thus allowing the viewer to survey each person close-up. Yet, observing the image at close range makes it impossible to see it as a whole, while looking at it from a distance results in losing all the details.”
