They read as graphic vintage yet modern, photoshop fictions, but are actually crafted through traditional photographic processing methods. Witkin’s disturbed imagery comes from incident that he witnessed as a small child; a car accident occurred in his neighborhood in which a young girl was decapitated. “It happened on a Sunday when my mother was escorting my twin brother and me down the steps of the tenement where we lived. We were going to church. While walking down the hallway to the entrance of the building, we heard an incredible crash mixed with screaming and cries for help. The accident involved three cars, all with families in them. Somehow, in the confusion, I was no longer holding my mother’s hand. At the place where I stood at the curb, I could see something rolling from one of the overturned cars. It stopped at the curb where I stood. It was the head of a little girl. I bent down to touch the face, to speak to it — but before I could touch it someone carried me away” Much of his work was created in Mexico to get around restrictive U.S. laws and the use of corpses. Witkin’s images violate basic moreLs and sensibilities causing shock and negative reviews. His techniques draw on early Daguerreotypes and on the work of E.J.
