Liu Bolin: The invisible man

Can a person disappear in plain sight? That’s the question Liu Bolin’s remarkable work seems to ask. The Beijing-based artist is sometimes called “The Invisible Man“ because in nearly all his art, Bolin is front and center — and completely unseen. He aims to draw attention to social and political issues by dissolving into the background.
