The Amazing Shadow Paintings of Rashad Alakbarov
Using various everyday objects and back light, Azerbaijani artist Rashad Alakbarov creates mind-blowing shadow paintings.
It always amazes me what some people can achieve by using the simplest materials and their imagination. Rashad Alakbarov is definitely one of these incredible individuals; using common items like empty plastic bottles, metal pipes or simple pieces of plastic and back light, he creates amazing works of art. Either by hanging these items from the ceiling, or carefully positioning them on a table, Alakbarov manages to produce incredible shadow paintings.
Seeing as you only need some junk and a couple of lamps for the back light, it’s theoretically possible to create shadow paintings like those of Rashad Alakbarov in the comfort of your own home, but do you really have the patience to do it? I know sure don’t.
