Turning a loss into a gift, George Redhawk, who is legally blind, creates gifs using photo manipulation to show the world how he sees with his damaged sight. The World Through My Eyes is an ongoing series of hypnotizing gifs and we are looking forward to seeing more from George Redhawk.
"To create most of my .gifs, I am using a photo morphing software which I have been experimenting with and perfecting over several years. Morphing software is designed to morph one photo to another photo, but a long time ago, I discovered that if I morph a photo to the exact same photo, I could get some pretty amazing movement out of it. Following the loss of most of my vision, I began to explore this medium as a means to express the world through my damaged sight. My art is designed with the idea to challenge and in some cases, disturb the visual sense of ‘order’, very much in the same way that my vision has become a constant challenge to me. It is also for this reason I refer to my work as, The World Through My Eyes."
