Helmo | Fashion Animals

French design team Helmo - Thomas Couderc and Clément Vauchez, put together a pretty crafty series called Bêtes de Mode using an anaglyph 3D technique.

Bêtes de mode - Fashion animals, is a series of 13 images created for the Galeries Lafayette in Paris.

The images of the animals in the red hue merged with images of beautiful people in the cyan hue, in a synchronous pose, make you almost want to put your 3D glasses on.

But really, it’s not necessary, because the design aesthetic is so striking and haunting, they are meant to be viewed as you see them now.

Never one to be satisfied with conventional art, Craig Tracy has created mesmerizing images using human bodies as his canvases since 2001.

Tracy was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana.

The city’s colorful and vibrant culture played an integral role in developing Tracy’s passion for art, including his family’s tradition of painting each other’s faces in celebration of Mardi Gras. His parents nurtured his individuality and creativity, with Tracy attributing their "Flower Power" and “Power to the People” mentalities as being responsible for how he views art and life.

Tracy received his first airbrush at the age of 15 from his parents, and one year later, at the age of 16, he took his first steps into the professional art world by working nights and weekends as an airbrush artist.

The experience taught him how to paint detailed works on a myriad of surfaces. He would later hone his artistic abilities by attending and graduating from the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale in Florida.

The gallery allows even the most seasoned art collectors and novices alike to see and experience first hand what Body-painting is ultimately capable of expressing.
