Art and Documentary Photography - Loading Masks_HEADER_original.jpg
Landon Meier makes terrifyingly realistic "Hyperflesh" masks inspired by topical, pop culture figures and characters. The more popular masks portray Donald Trump, Kim Jong-un, Vladimir Putin, a crying baby, Mike Tyson, and Walter White from "Breaking Bad". The masks are made of either latex or silicone and take weeks to manufacture. Meier detailed work starts with digitalized face imaging and ends with hands-on painting and implanting hair. 

"I wanted to create a surreal experience for the innocent bystander who sees somebody wearing these masks," Meier says.
