For years now, I've had conversations with people where they simply don't believe that my hair is half as unruly as I make it out to be. Many of them have only ever seen me with my hair flat ironed. So when the topic came up of found vs. made in Utata, I knew exactly what I could do!
Found: my hair in its natural state, no makeup, and very minimal post processing.
Made: as most people see me, with my hair and makeup done, and here, on Flickr, with some retouching in PS.
Sometimes we find things and sometimes we make them, and then, when we do both, we put them in diptychs and put them in this project.
