A look-alike contests series, for which the artist
digitally recreated historical portraits from the 17th century. The resulting images were used in
publicity campaigns to find individuals to enter these look-alike contests
culminating in a theatrical event. Contest winners received a trip to the homeland of the original portrait
painter and sitter. Each winner had the option to participate in public events
organized to honor them.
