William klein
I was really interested in William Kleins' photography for this project, as not only are his images a prime example of good black and white photos, but they have a street style/honest approach. His work relates to my initial ideas of the Oripeau project as they feature a high contrast style, which works really nicely in a graphic context. I really like these images in particular, as they capture stereotypes of masculinity and femininity; highly suitable for my object being the hyper-masculine associated moustache.

I was suggested to look at this piece as it explores the idea of differentiating shadows and light but with the same object; it would be interesting to do this with moustaches on somebodies face, by altering the angle of the light.
John Stezaker
John Stazakers' work features this approach of layering images which provide a certain juxtaposition of masculinity and femininity. I like how these ones in particular experiment with the idea of this contrast, which is an element of my research that I would like to explore in my own work, e.g. women with moustaches.
