They say art comes in many forms -- and that may or may not include camouflaging. Liu Bolin, also referred to as "China's Invisible Man" is an artist who specializes in camouflage body paintings. He picks a place, studies its every detail, and then produces body art that allows him or a model to blend in with the environment in the most natural way possible.
His work is definitely not considered traditional art, but we think it's pretty awesome. From supermarket aisles to suburban Chinese streets, look through the slideshow to get more familiar with his unique work. And let us know if you think it's as marvelous as we do.
Isn't this just taking a camera, putting it on a tripod, taking a picture, having someone get in the frame, taking another picture, loading them in photoshop as layers, and tweaking the transparency? If it's not, it could be duplicated that way in under 5 minutes a shot requiring almost zero talent. Here is my 2 minute attempt with an old image, would look much better if I actually took new images.
