Stockholm Body Painting Contest

Art upon the skin continues to grow more popular, and as a result, international body painting contests seem to be too. The photos above are from Stockholm’s Body Painting Contest held last month, a first for Sweden’s capital.

Stockholm’s Body Painting Contest participants dazzled with their use of robust, fluorescent, and bright colors. Some artists went with animal themes, others a combination of nature and modern buildings, and the human anatomy as well.
