Not Fitting In Modern Society, Liu Bolin


Shocking precision makes Liu Bolin’s work remarkably unbelievable.

35-year-old Chinese artist Bolin, camouflages himself in any surroundings, and there is no background too difficult for him.

Bolin may spend upwards of 10 hours at any given moment to achieve his desired effect.

He works from photographs, capturing a specific image and then painting himself to fit inside that exact photo

Liu Bolin says his art is a protest against the actions of the Government, who shut down his art studio in 2005 and persecutes artists.

It’s about not fitting into modern society.

Despite problems with Chinese authorities, Liu’s works are appreciated at an international level.
