After the photo session, he asked each one if the secret had a color, and these are the colors the portraits carry. From this photo shooting session he chose 10 different portraits to cut and overlap.
Though he uses a different technique, it reminds me a bit of the work of Christopher Coppers.

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?
The cut-out portraits of Brazilian artist Lucas Simões are pretty amazing, consisting of layering the same photo up to 10 times, he invites intimate friends over to tell him a secret as he takes their portrait. However, his intention was not to hear their secret, but to capture the expressions of each one at the moment they revealed their secret.
Simoes’s also asked each one to choose a song for him to listen in his earphones while he photographed them.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
