This is a post about an artist I truly admire, Victoria Gugenheim. The post is shared with Univers d'Artistes, the blog I still, occasionally, contribute to.
Victoria is a body painter, an art form she has taken to new heights. Her creations are absolutely amazing. She is interested in science and much of her work aims to explore the connection between art and science.
This is how Victoria describes herself:
This woman is dynamic!
She has had articles written about her in mainstream publications, such as The Guardian, her work is known internationally and she has won awards. More recently, Victoria took part in Catwalk4Change, the event organised by Models of Diversity and body painted model Angela Kelly giving the illusion of a lavish evening gown.
Victoria holds workshops in body painting and make up.
More of Victoria's work can be found on her website at victoriagugenheim.com, and you can follow her on Twitter @quirkathon

Yes, she is indeed multi talented and I wish that I get to work with her.
ReplyDeleteGreat work Victoria. I could be in London 2015 and hope to catch up with you again. David Minifie
ReplyDeleteThat's amazing - not just the artistic skill, but also taking account of movement - for example, making that painted dress look convincing as the model walks along the catwalk - and making all the right connections with sartorial and cultural cues, so that we don't just see paint - for example, the DNA helix on the picture at the top of this blogpost, coming across as a sash.
