Johannes Stoetter takes body art to new heights of creativity, transforming human models into fruits, animals, flowers or part of the environment itself, submerged into the background. He is the winner of the World Body-Painting Championship of 2012, and simply loves what he's doing.
When asked about his inspiration, he replied that he observes the world and its colors and nature with clear eyes and an open heart, and that painting is his greatest passion.
