Vortograph Photoshop technique

Currently working on Architecture with our year 9 so heres a tutorial I did with them and the final outcome was a success. It was challenging but the end product was brilliant. The work is inspired by the photographer Simon Gardiner and used one of my photos as part of the tutorial.

Students used the marquee tool to cut selections of the building to create a abstract piece of work along with various other tools on Photoshop.

“Vortograph: the first completely abstract kind of photograph, composed of kaleidoscopic repetitions of forms achieved by photographing objects through a triangular arrangement of three mirrors.”
