Giving old photos a whole new life.
Artist Jane Long‘s Dancing with Costica project takes old photographs and brings them back to life, recolouring the images and giving each of the photographer’s characters their own imagined backstory.
Jane says she started the project to brush up on her retouching skills, but quickly got caught up in Costica’s images, wondering what the stories of the people in the pictures could be.
She says: ‘I wanted to bring them to life. But more than that, I wanted to give them a story.’
