Charis Poon made this poetic project using some transparency sheets in a photo frame:
In my travels across the Internet I invariably come across really meaningful text that someone has come up with superimposed on (typically using the font Helvetica) some very pretty, abstract image of nature, city lights, a beautiful girl or otherwise gentle and mysterious photo. I can’t imagine a better way to fuse the words in your head and the things you see then by putting the two exactly on top of each other to express your deep, throbbing emotions.
Thus I decided I had to have words in real life too. How could anyone know a photo would look nice with text on it unless you were able to test it out first?
