Platon, the British photographer famous for his close-up portraits of world leaders, is using NFT photos of the human iris to show how humans can be reduced to a unique but unrecognizable image. He even did one self-portrait of his own iris but, if placed in an iris lineup, he could not tell his own from anyone elses.
Platon only uses one name like Prince, he says.
