About Body Painting

 

Body painting, or  bodypainting, is a form of body art. Body art is art made on, with, or consisting of, the human body and can be used in fine arts, installations, but is also the perfect eye catcher for any event, live show, advertisement, promotion, photo shooting, music videos, cd covers, fashion shows or more.

 

This art form is unique and very old. I love it because it is alive: the painted body can move, dance, sing. On  human skin you can create a 3D illusion, an alien, a building. You can express feelings, a whole world, yet this world will exist for a few hours, will stay in your mind, disappearing later into running water. This art form is like a kiss, you simply have to enjoy the present moment.

 

"Body painting helps us regain contact with something inside us that is unfathomable, raw and untouched. Something fundamentally and exclusively human that is waiting to be released and allowed to reveal itself."
