As an artist, 
As an artist, Natalie Shau wears multiple hats, so to speak, and this shows in her process. Aside from her personal projects, she has worked in fashion photography and designed artwork for theater productions, the music industry and advertising. Her personal work is similarly interdisciplinary: She makes props and set designs, stages photo shoots and then puts her photos under the (digital) knife, transforming her models from realistic women to warped, surreal vixens. Shau’s latest body of work will debut at Last Rites Gallery in New York City on May 31. Her first solo show with the gallery, “Forgotten Heroines” brings mythological influences into Shau’s vignettes of solitary, tragic protagonists. There is as much Shakespeare in these pieces as there is Marilyn Manson. “Forgotten Heroines” will be on view May 31 through July 5, but before the show opens you can get a first look here.
Combining disciplines in make-up effects, costuming, and digital manipulation, 
In Erika Zolli's "A Little Known Marble" series, she blends mediums by photographing monochromatic marble sculptures from Galleria d'Arte Moderna in Milan and digitally adding "the typical color of ancient sculptures,” fighting against any notion that the “classical world was devoid of color.”
