15 Portraits of Unrelated Doppelgangers
by twistedsifter
Have you ever met or seen another person that looked exactly like someone you know? If so, then you’ve encountered someone’s Doppelgänger.
I’m not a look-alike! is an ongoing project by François Brunelle (featured previously). For the last fourteen years the photographer has been taking black and white portraits of unrelated doppelgängers and he has found and photographed over 230 look-alikes to date. Most people have found him and his project through his website and social media.
If you’re interested to learn more about the project and how the portraits are taken, be sure to check out the informative FAQ on Brunelle’s site.
Brunelle recently completed an exhibition of 58 portraits from the project at the Museo Nacionlal de la Fotografia de Colombia, in Bogotá. A smaller exhibit will also be displayed in Medellin from August 26 to September 11 and Santiago de Cali from 14 to 28 September 2014. You can find more info on the exhibit here and here.
