Bernard Pras

May 1, 2013 by Rosie Bromberg 1 Comment

anamorphic-portrait bernard pras
If you see only one crazy example of what art and craft can be this week, let it be Bernard Pras. Bernard specializes in anamorphic portraits–basically what you get when you mix 3d street art and collage, they are huge installations that reveal themselves as portraits only when you stand in the right spot. The example above is a portrait of Mali actor Sotigui Kouyaté, built from a variety of materials, including old clothing, driftwood, and film reel tins. This video gives an in-depth look at the making of this artwork and especially highlights the amazing scale of the project. You can see more about it on Enpundit’s feature, or check out Bernard Pras’s other works on his site.

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
