Multiple Exposure Photographs.

Work by Christoffer Relander.  His working has been making the circuit of the art blogs recently.

Labeled by the artist as "multiple exposures," my assumption is that this is old school rather than Photoshop, though the effects could be acheived in Photoshop relatively easily.  Which raises questions for me: do I like it more if I know it's not 'shopped? Should it matter? It's, of course, the old question of how much context should matter; how much artwork (or anything expressing meaning or value) can or be interpreted or appreciated on its own.  There is no direct yes/no answer to this question: the extent that context matters itself depends on the context of the question.
