Hipsters in Stones by Leo Caillard
Started as a fun series several years ago becomes a personal art project “Hipsters in Stones” of Leo Caillard, artist and resident of MTArt Agency.
“The statues, with their clothes stripped away reveal a magnificence of shape and balance. But what were the greeks wearing when they weren’t posing for sculptors? Appearance, in all its many nuances, presents character. One’s dress sense indicates one’s priorities, choices, lifestyle — are you ‘in’ or are you ‘out’? Hipster or classic? Which tribe are you a member of? which tribe we the men posing for these statues from? Hipsters in stone presents a twist on these themes — take the ultimate from the classic world and add a modern, contemporary twist”
