artful fridays – Spencer Tunick

Continuing with the “body as the central focus ” theme this week…

Spencer Tunick uses lots of human bodies in his large scale photo shoots – we’re talking sometimes even hundreds of them! He’s been doing it for quite some time now – no wonder why he masters the skill of making people stay still to pose for the camera. Can you imagine? If taking family pictures is hard enough – now add another 500 moving bodies. Crazy!

For this feature I chose a few photos that look like a human ocean of color, where waves and tides are made out of limbs and faces. Make sure to see more of his work over here.

By the way, I am this close of launching the new revamped blog! I am also trying to bring some new columns that will surely please your eyes. So excited! Stay tuned for the “grand gallery opening”.

Happy weekend peeps :)

    So cool! It’s like a school of fish, or atoms or … I’ll stop there. That’s also a whole lot of naked strangers in a confined space.
