ARTISTADAY: Levi van Veluw

As I was looking through the ARTISTADAY website, I came across a unique self-portrait. The artist, Levi van Veluw, takes portraits of himself and adds different textures to the face. In the example shown in the first picture, the face is covered in trees, grass, and other greenery. The focus of the composition then shifts from the face itself to the surreal landscape created on the face. One can also see that this creates more space within the composition since the greenery wraps around the face and adds interest to the shape of the face.

Levi van Veluw is a photographer from the Netherlands. He is an award winning photographer who was showcased in several locations across Europe and the United States. Many of his works so far are one-man made self-portraits using the same concept as the picture I shared.
