The team of chameleon people has been replenished. Previously, we wrote about only one such author, an artist named Liu Bolin, and today we will meet another specialist, a Peruvian artist Cecilia Paredes, a master of unusual bodypainting, who hides people in such a way that at first glance, you can't tell. And if Liu Bolin is called the maestro of urban camouflage, then Cecilia Paredes's camouflage can be definitely called floral. The peculiarity of Liu Bolin's urban camouflage is that he hides himself. Cecilia Paredes paints not only herself, but also models, trying to hide them in luxurious floral ornaments, turning them into elements of an artistic composition. And despite the fact that camouflage of people, "dissolving" them against one background or another, has already become a fashionable trend, the Peruvian artist turns it out in an original, fresh and interesting way.
So, Cecilia Paredes chooses not only original ornaments and floral motifs. She also tries to give the models a pose that makes them look sexy and chaste at the same time. A little eroticism in creativity is even useful. But you shouldn't turn the art of bodypainting into an exhibition of naked bodies covered with paint, says the artist.
Cecilia Paredes already has an impressive collection of examples of floral camouflage in her portfolio. But this art project brings her a lot of pleasure, and the process is inspiring, so the collection will continue to grow and replenish. You can see all this on the personal website of Cecilia Paredes.

Urban Camouflage by Joshua Callaghan
Probably, each of us at least once thought about how trash cans, transformer boxes and other necessary, but extremely unsightly structures do not fit into city landscapes. Painted in dull colors, they do not add beauty to the streets and positive mood for passers-by.
