Make
- Up
Make-up has enabled transformation in many cultures throughout
time. Examples of process include video footage of Rudolf Nureyev
methodically distorting his features to portray Petrouchka
to Blatas' painting of Joel Grey becoming The Emcee. Illustrations
of recognizable finished made-up faces range from Kabuki to
the horror film characterizations of Lon Chaney to the invented
species that populate Star Trek: Voyager and Deep
Space Nine.
