Back to the future

I came across this artist the other day called Irina Werning who is doing an ongoing project called 'Back to the Future.'
I thought it was a really interesting idea- she has basically used old photos of kids and tried to recreate them with the same person, pose, clothes, background, everything. I think the results are really interesting. There is something about the photos that is really captivating- maybe it's reliving our childhood years in just one photograph and seeing how different or how similar we look to how we used to look as children.
Id love to try this idea someday as a gimmick, just to see how different I used to look to how I do now.








Here's her website:
