It could be argued that most, if not all, is weird at some level or another. Liu Bolin's camouflage art, however, is a whole other story. Each "masterpiece" takes up to 10 hours to set up and get just right. Often, passers-by don’t even realize he is there until he moves.
What Mr. Bolin does is paint himself (or his subjects?) into the environment; without any photo trickery or image processing. That is, he becomes a chameleon with his background and surroundings. Take a look for yourself ...
I'm sure that the photo doesn't do his work justice. It actually took me a couple of seconds to see him in this favorite picture of mine for his "Hiding in the City" collection.
