Family ties in the Family Tree photo project

But photographer Bobby Neel Adams (Bobby Neel Adams) made it even more visual, so to speak. In his latest project, Family Tree, he created a series of portraits of his closest relatives. Each photo is a "torn" picture, one part of which is a photo of mom/dad, and the second part is a picture of daughter/son.
It turned out very interesting. Before us are not just pictures of one person in the style of "then and now", these are pictures of two people at the present time, between whom there are kindred traits.
And although these photos are dedicated to the aging process, they also draw our attention to the similarity between relatives, especially the closest ones, i.e. between father/son, mother/daughter, father/daughter and mother/son.
Bobby Neil Adams was born in North Carolina, and now lives in New York. Most of his works are related to the changes that occur with the human body under the influence of time or circumstances.
In the late 1980s, he began using a photomontage technique, which he called "photosurgery". The author assures that he composes his collages manually, without using a computer. Two photos are cut by hand, and the different halves are glued together into one portrait, which clearly demonstrates to us the work of the laws of genetics.
Even despite the difference in hair color - gray on the one hand and dark on the other — we see a clear similarity.
