Blonde in black (and white too)

Nobody likes ads. But this one is worth remembering! A spot of the well-known brand Kryolan - a company specializing in make-up and bodypainting products. Once, you could see an interesting spot on the web, in which the artist painted a model with the company's paints.

The advertisement we are talking about, made its debut online probably around 2015. If my memory serves me correctly, I saw it for the first time on the Vimeo platform, but I think it has already disappeared from there.

The mentioned artist is George Keramidas - a Greek creator who mainly specializes in face makeup, so body painting lovers don't necessarily know him. His canvas was Kirsten Ciel Lauder - a model and singer with Greek-Scottish roots. In fact, I don't know much about her, except that she doesn't seem to specialize in nude photos, although her social media profile looks inviting.

Of course, the advertising spot must not be too literal in expression, but nevertheless, it is impressive. Naked Kirsten patiently poses for George, gradually disappearing under the coat of black paint, to finally finish the work with artistic "suicide". If anyone has not seen it yet, this is what they have the opportunity to...

Kirsten and George. Job Done!

Blonde in black...

The stills captured what is only a fraction of a second in the film...

And if you like the women in black, check out the Deeper into Black Hole and Woman in black!

Interestingly, you can also find other Kryolan promotional materials with Kirsten in the lead role on the web. This time the leitmotif was white. These are photos by Xander Romanov and come from around 2018. At that time, the photographer announced that a film from the session would also be released soon, unfortunately I could not find anything like that. Maybe some of you know something about it?
