The invisible man: Liu Bolin's amazing camouflage artwork


...Artist Liu Bolin folds his trousers as he prepares to blend in with the vegetables displayed on the shelves at a supermarket in Beijing

 

My interpretation of his work-
I am very interested in Bolin's work so I searched more into it and why he wanted to create this sort of art and I found a video on youtube of one of his shows he does speaking about his work.
Dissolved into the background to express his concerns,expressions and thoughts to the society and the environment around it.
One of his pieces of work means a lot to him as it was at a village that once was his home town that got demolished by the government urban management.In order to show his anger of unfair treatment he painted himself to get himself insolved in the demolished building background.
Expressing his concerns and questions to the unfair treatment they received as artists in china.It was his protest to the government.
In his talk he says"the national people congress system is the fondimentals to our society"
"we need to vote according to our laws"
Im hoping to work towards a garment either painted to look derelict almost camouflaged with all the rubbish laying around in the streets.Or actually creating a garment with scraps I find on the streets for example crisp packets,rubbish,cigarette buds etc.
