Classical Portraits of Extreme Plastic Surgery[views:2125][posts:9]___________________________________ [Apr 4,2013 2:57pm - Alx_Casket ""] Phillip Toledano�s photos in his series �A New Kind of Beauty� have many traits of a traditional portrait, but his subjects are far from average. Toledano documents people who have gone through radical reconstructive plastic surgery. �In 50 or 100 years time, I think humanity won�t look like it does today because of technology. � We will be able to redefine what it means to look human and I think these people are the vanguard of that type of evolution,� Toledano said about the project. The evolution of the series was somewhat serendipitous and evolved through both social media and traditional word of mouth. During an assignment to photograph a man who�d had multiple plastic surgery procedures, Toledano befriended the man�s press assistant. Through that friendship on Facebook, he noticed Allanah, a transgendered woman who had also gone through multiple surgeries. He photographed her, and she in turn let him know about other people for the project. It grew into a larger network of friends of friends.
