A little makeup and skillful hands can not only turn an ordinary woman into a beauty, but also create a whole series of amazing works of art - the same paintings, but not on the face, but in the form of a face. More precisely, a portrait. Namely, a self-portrait. Artist and makeup artist Nadia Wicker from France became the author of an art project Ursides, in which she depicted herself with bright decorative cosmetics - in an abstract style. Very bright makeup, correct light and a very black background are the three components of this art project. Add dexterous hands and a little computer manipulation here, and we get fantastic photographs in which the outlines of the face in profile and full face are guessed. Some of these portraits are too abstract, but in some places you can really see a person, the author of the Ursides art project Nadia Viker.
Cosmetics for a make-up artist is like watercolor for an artist. You can draw anything you want, create a completely different image for this or that person. It will no longer be a portrait, but a painting, a work of art. In the art project Ursides there are paintings, creativity, fantasies. This is what the artist wanted to say and show with these unusual works of art.
