Painting with Light: 15 Long-Exposure Light Art Photos. Painting with Light: 15 Long-Exposure Light Art Photos Article by Steph, filed under Photography & Video in the Art category. Words, ghostly forms and streaks of ethereal light take shape when photographers move a light source around in a frame while taking a long-exposure image. Variously known as light art, light graffiti, light drawing or light painting, this art form can involve glow sticks, flashlights, small LED lights, illuminated toys, sparking steel wool – even rockets and iPads.

The human body is the central point of my stylistic research. I am fascinated by the multiple ways that the natural silhouette of the body can be accentuated, exaggerated and distorted with clothes and accessories.

My costumes are constructed during a long process, organised in different stages: At first they are shaped with a “toile”, a prototype of the costume made out of cotton, pleated paper and cardboard. I try to transform the body into a kind of sculpture, by composing with different volumes. See also:
