Bodyscapes

Photographer Jean-Paul Bourdier’s Bodyscapes collection is remarkable. The California-based photographer combines performance art, body paints, and magnificent landscapes to create these images where natural human bodies intertwine with the environment using no digital manipulation.

Rather than being a mere recording of an encounter between event and photographer, the photograph is an event of its own: long prepared, and yet full of unexpected moments; a still manifestation of an encounter between desert light, body light, and camera eye.
