Liu Bolin, The Incredible "Invisible Man"

..

The end of this video has a quote by Amy Lowell. It says, “Art is the desire for a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in.” This was perfect for the end of a presentation showing Bolin’s work. He combines unique creativitiy with wit. His work is so modern with this exremely clever twist. But don’t let that distract you from seeing how talented he is. His precision is outstanding, and he really does look invisible. In fact, in one imagine I had to pause the video before I could find him. It’s like a twisted, realistic “Where’s Waldo.” Every image seems more impossible to pull off, yet somehow he does with an uncanny ability to make it look close to perfect.
