THE PAINTERS PROJECT Works by Eric Ceccarini

number and size. This artwork is a photograph mounted to aluminum, with a UV protective lamination film to the front and set in a wood black float frame.
Extensive, both in time and scope; Eric Ceccarini’s The Painters Project is an ongoing collaboration with painters, sculptors and visual artists. Ceccarini invites selected artists and pairs them with some of the very best models he has enjoyed working with during his editorial career.
This unorthodox partnership gives birth to wonderful and often surprising creations. The artist brings his creative universe, techniques, and palette; the model brings their personality and body language; interaction is key to the process. The temporary nature of the painting on human skin is captured and preserved through Ceccarini’s lens to create the photographic artwork. Together, the body, the pose, and the art become one for a brief moment.
Ceccarini manages to blend the distinct viewpoints of different disciplines and artsistic minds and to mix various instruments, tools and angles. Ceccarini also sets himself apart from others by shunning technical artifice and working in natural light outside the studio. This results in soft, velvety, almost painterly images
that amaze.
For a number of these artists the project offers them a step in the dark, an escape into unknown territory. They must settle into a new environment with unfamiliar light, unusual shadows and highlights. The traditional canvas is replaced by a person: three dimensional, alive, warm, breathing and sentient.
Movements and poses influence their strokes, they must discover, adapt and ultimately understand this canvas with their brush.
More than hundred meetings have already taken place with artists from the UK, Uruguay, Mauritius, Belgium, The Netherlands, Spain, Italy, France, Switzerland, the US, China, Venezuela, Russia and many other countries all across the globe. Erik is a Belgian artist born in 1965. He gained a degree in photography from infac, Brussels in 1987. After a successful career as a fashion photographer for many luxury houses he concentrated on his artistic work.
