Preservation: humans covered with honey by Blake Little — elegantly unique and exquisite artwork!

American artist Blake Little, famous for his celebrity portraits, has created an unusual photography series titled Preservation. His nude subjects were completely covered with honey that seemed to depict human sculptures clad with melting gold. The diverse physical features and skin colors perfectly blended with the honey, resulting a dramatic and sensual presentation of our beautiful human body. In his book with the same title, Little writes, “Preservation has many meanings, from the physical to the spiritual. At the most basic – and perhaps the most important – level it can denote survival.”

Enjoy this elegantly unique and exquisite artwork!
