In her wonderful “Makeup Transit Authority” project, environmental designer Lydia Cambron brilliantly employs makeup and handmade props to replicate the faces of the women featured in vandalized subway ads.

‘MTA’ is an ongoing series of recreated defaced subway ads using myself, cosmetics, various handmade props, and a 10-sec. timer.
