Emma Fay, 27, took the internet by storm when she wowed the world with her contortionist spider.

Pictured above, an ultra-flexible model was transformed into a super-sized spider. It took Emma, five hours of intricate work to create the incredible detail.

As you can see below, she also uses the human body to create objects and landscape scenes.


She has been body painting for five years and has created a series of images to celebrate the marvels of nature.


Prior to proceeding with her art work, Emma asks the contortionists to get into the initial pose. At this stage, she marks out where the outline will be.


The contortionists can only hold the pose for five-seconds. In this crucial time, she has to work quickly and ensure that she will get it right.





See more of her art, and hear her talk about her passion in the video below:
