A Great Example Of Body Camouflage,

from Cecilia Paredes,



born in Lima, Peru, Cecilia often disguises herself against flora,

animals, various objects, and fabrics which all play a part in Cecilia’s art and photographs,

 “I wrap, cover or paint my body with the same pattern of the material and represent myself as part of that landscape. Through this act, I am working on the theme of building my own identification with the entourage or part of the world where I live or where I feel I can call home.” 

you can see more of Paredes’s lavish portraits at Ruiz-Healy ArtArtsy, and Instagram

looking at these last two photographs,

 I guess the artist must be ambidextrous, to paint both of her hands.
