Vanishing Act

On my daily travels across the internet, I’ve ran into a few articles about Liu Bolin painting himself into the surroundings of different places all over the world. I think it’s dope. At first you may think its just a dude with paint on him. But when you actually think about the time, effort, and coordination that must go into putting something like this together, you gotta respect it.

Liue Bolin’s art reminds me of the way they made the Blueprint 3 album cover. We’re so used to being blessed with the finished product when it comes to art, that we never get a chance to truly appreciate the process. Check out more pics and a video of Liu Bolin being painted into a traditional courtyard house in Beijing while explaining the meaning of his art after the jump…
