Buket Savci and I painting Liu Bolin on site at the Boom Boom Room, the Standard Hotel, NYC.
Mei Ge and Buket Savci hard at work at Klein Sun Gallery, pre-painting Liu Bolin's jacket to blend in with the iconic Boom Boom Room bar.
Thanks to my artist/gallerist friend Elizabeth Misitano, I was able to work on a few more Liu Bolin projects through Klein Sun Gallery last year. This particular project involved painting on Liu Bolin at the Standard Hotel's Boom Boom Room, as part of his "Hiding in the City" photo series. Teaming up with fellow New York Academy of Art alumni Mei Ge and Buket Savci, we camouflaged Liu Bolin into his surroundings using acrylic paint and a little Vaseline. It was some serious fast-paced work, but very fun!
Check out New York Observer writer Nate Freeman's take on the process, and the resulting jigsaw puzzle of the final image, here.
