Black Light Bodyscapes

John_Poppleton_04

I’ve always been in awe and wonder of the beauty found in nature. Inspired by the colors and textures found in sunsets. The excitement and anticipation of the next lightning strike with its thunderous heart pounding report.

Majestic waterfalls to sublime mountain skylines with their reflections in the still lakes found beneath them.

From the eerie allurement of the Northern Lights to the cosmic artistry seen throughout the universe.

It’s worth checking out the video – these aren’t Photoshop, but actual body paintings.

About

I design video games for a living, write fiction, political theory and poetry for personal amusement, and train regularly in Western European 16th century swordwork. On frequent occasion I have been known to hunt for and explore abandoned graveyards, train tunnels and other interesting places wherever I may find them, but there is absolutely no truth to the rumor that I am preparing to set off a zombie apocalypse. Nothing that will stand up in court, at least. I use paranthesis with distressing frequency, have a deep passion for history, anthropology and sociological theory, and really, really, really hate mayonnaise. But I wash my hands after the writing. Promise.
