faces half-emerging from books; faces half-disappearing from paintings

Two sets of work from artist Grégory Chiha:
- Têtes brûlées, books carefully burnt to create images of heads and faces.
- Fantômes, paintings with warped/strange/half-there subjects.

Awesome. Many of the images in Fantômes unsettle me on a fundamental level in a way that's normally reserved for Jim Woodring's art.

Ha, I started making a post about Folded Book Art (starting with this link) so now I don't have to.
