Codex Perductum

Turn Your Head is a company that will create a wacky gift from the profile of your face. Submit a picture and they will use a lathe to carve it out of a hunk of wood. The result is an art piece which sculpts space into your visage. From any perspective two negative views of you look at each other.

"At Turn Your Head, we fill the space between two opposing profiles of your face. By spinning that space into a three dimensional visage that follows the outlined silhouettes of your two profiles, we create the "Pirolette".

Place the Pirolette to your face and it will match your profile. Locate it near a wall and the shadow of the Pirolette will be your silhouette.

Your profile captured forever in an object of art. An optical illusion of shadow and light, each one unique because it's you!
