Fine Art Photographer Ben Hopper is the Edge of Humanity Magazine contributor of these images. From his project ‘Transfiguration‘. To see Ben’s body of work click on any photograph.
‘Transfiguration’ explores the process of capturing live movement, photographing international contemporary circus artists and dancers in interesting and provocative ways.
Like a mask, layers of body paint and powder disguise the identity of the subject and release something animalistic from within, showcasing the unique physicality and exploring the spirit of each performer. It also creates a sculpture / painting looking figure, more abstract and less human.
