Chinese artist Liu Bolin
paints his entire body to exactly match the scenery behind him. He is
camouflaged so well it is sometimes almost impossible to spot him. His
latest exhibition, Hiding
in the City, at the Eli Klein Fine Art gallery in New York, shows him
melting into various urban backdrops, including a picture of a
variety of mobile phones.

The 40-year-old spends up to 10 hours at a time posing in order to get
the photographs inch perfect. In one of his latest works - called
'Made in China' - Liu perfectly camouflages himself against shelves of
brightly-coloured toys manufactured in his homeland.
