Liu Bolin the Invisible Man Arts


Chinese must be proud to have a great artist on their vast land. The genius artist is called Liu Bolin who is 35-year-old and from Shandong, China. He has a talent to camouflage himself in any surroundings, no matter how difficult they might be. Liu works on a single photo for up to 10 hours at a time, to make sure he gets it just right, but he achieves the right effect: sometimes passers-by don’t even realize he is there until he moves. The talented 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.

  1. can't think of anything that excites a greater sense of childlike wonder than to be in a country where you are ignorant of almost eveything.

    To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted. Flights to kathmandu
