Surreal with projections

I used one of the images from one of the light shoots (will upload this later) and combined it with a image of a fetus using a projector in college. I printed the images on acetate and made my own slides from them and layering images creates this effect. Unfortunately you can't change how light an image can be or at least the section you want to be light when you layer them as with this combination attempting to make it lighter would mean the fetus would be too translucent.  
To overcome the issue of the fetus being too light I combined it with a different image which let more the light even out on both images as it was less dark. I experimented projecting the image onto some net curtain and it produced some weird and interesting effects.

Here is an example of when I moved the net, It almost looks like running water.
I wrapped the net around myself and projected onto myself. I positioned it so the fetus' head was on my stomach like a scan.

Projection with shadow.
