250 Pairs of Doppelgangers and Counting
After two decades, Brunelle has photographed about 250 pairs of doppelgangers. While that number is impressive, it belies how difficult it is to find them. At the beginning, Brunelle had a hard time collecting models for his project. His quest became easier when the media got involved, which allowed him to reach a lot of people.
“Now my biggest challenge is to finish the project and publish a book with my photographs that is not boring but relevant and can reflect about what we are as human beings and also throw an honest look about what defines our identity,” Brunelle said.
The photographer told Gizmodo that he is currently working on a book about his “I’m not a look-alike!” project with a European editor that’s set to be released in 2023. He also wants to create an exhibition of his photographs to enlighten people on the idea of identity.
