Ben Hopper 告诉gooood： “该项目最初从2012年11月开始，两年后我下定决心将其做成一个系列，并在找寻世界上著名的马戏团表演艺术家和舞蹈演员合作。比如加拿大蒙特利尔的 École nationale de cirque马戏团，法国Centre national des arts du cirque，以及英国伦敦皇家马戏艺术团。”

这些艺术家抽象优美的身影动作和覆盖在他们身体上的涂层展现出人体的野性之美。

目前项目仍在继续中，期待未来的新片。

Transfiguration–A personal photographic project by Ben Hopper.

“The first photo shoot with dancer Alejandra Baño dates back to November 2012. That shoot was an experiment but something happened there.

Like a mask, the layers of body paint and powder disguise the identity and release something animalistic from within.

It also creates a sculptor / painting looking figure, more abstract and less human.
A little more than 2 years later I am very excited to share with you the first batch of images from my new project “Transfiguration“.

For this project I decided to work with circus artists and dancers for their physical appearance and capabilities.

The list includes international acclaimed performers and graduates of the world’s leading circus schools, École nationale de cirque (Montreal, Canada), CNAC; Centre national des arts du cirque (Châlons-en-Champagne, France) and National Centre for Circus Arts (London, UK).”

The project is still going and there’s more work that I will release later on.
Photographed with Mamiya Leaf Credo 80 and Canon EOS 5D Mark II.
