Hello bloggers, I've been doing some research on transparent or semi-transparent imagery for my project. As I'm sure I must have mentioned, I think to project a 'sense' of something it needs to be kind of vague, mysterious, semi-solid. I really like the work of chinese artist Liu Bolin. As you can see from these images he paints himself to blend-in to any whichever background he chooses making him appear almost invisible. Even after finding him in the image there is a certain ghost-like quality to his presence.

 

I have a few more good images to upload but it's taking too long on this computer. I'll try again tomorrow on one of the college computers - dead fast in comparison.
