A large number of artists create art with their hands, whether it’s done using a computer or more traditional techniques. Vika Brent is a rarer breed, as the artist creates art WITH her hands and ON her hands. She also creates on faces and bodies, but her hand work is probably the most famous.

Her artworks usually consist of surreal illusions on a black background. She shows the process of painting, then animates her artwork by moving (or having the model move), which creates a totally surreal and mesmerizing atmosphere. You can follow her new work on her X account.
