Dusty Chalk Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Hull is to be made the UK City of Culture in 2017, and the American photographer Spencer Tunick was commissioned to commemorate this.His brief was to photograph hundreds of the city's residents in a setting that recalls Hull's seafaring history.Tunick said of the installation:"I’m very interested in the history of the city and its place as a seafaring centre and its relationship to a rich maritime past.It intrigues me that in some places where there are major streets or parks today, previously there was water. To reflect this I’ll be using body paint so that the massed people create the idea of a sea of humanity flooding the urban landscape."

Craig Sawyers Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 3 hours ago, Dusty Chalk said: 3200 people in Hull. Hull - how on earth that number of people in *Hull* were persuaded to strip, then be spray painted shades of the sea from head to feet is a matter of astonishment. All shapes, sizes and ages. It was the news coverage, where this mass of people walked through the city centre. Absolutely no passers by took the blindest interest - almost "Well - this is Hull on a Saturday morning - what can you expect?" In this world of woe, this all leaves me refreshed and makes me smile. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
