GEORGE CHAMOUN






GEORGE CHAMOUN /// ICONATOMY

Series of collages by George Chamoun, a Swedish jewelry design student at the Konstfack University of the Arts. The project was the student’s workshop with the theme ‘icons’ that would imply either celebrities, fashion icons, political, religious or any other personalities that influenced our world in one way or another.

GEORGE CHAMOUN’s idea was to work with movie icons from two different eras. The project combines several themes and concepts such as ideals, anatomy and Hollywood patterns against the factor of time. According to the creator, his intention was not to make comparisons of any sort, but rather to emphasize the structural aspect as well as the existent similarities, in spite of the era. As the pictures speak for themselves, it is only left to say that when the magnetism of Elisabeth Taylor meets the charm of Angelina Jolie and the virility of Cary Grant is matched with George Clooney’s sexuality, the result can’t be anything but stimulating.
