Body as a canvas the work of Eric Ceccarini

  • 8 years ago
Belgian photographer Eric Ceccarini works as a fashion and advertising snapper.

He is also an artist and he collaborates with painters he meets around the world.

He spoke of his modus operandi:
“We go to Ibiza for around three days, to work not on a canvas, but a body, it breaks the rules, the painter usually looks at the model then paints on canvas. Here they touch the model with pencils, with hands or with a sponge. I not here to direct the work, I photograph the final piece.”

For the painters its a fresh adventure working on a living canvas.

Eric Ceccarini works with the same models on the project:“The model is important because they have to understand what the painter wants to express on the skin, alter the positions to best showcase the paintings.”
