Daniel Lismore on living your life as a work art!

It is a quite strange statement, you may hear about living your life as an artist which is a bit different than a normal life as art changes how you view your surroundings and have a unique vision for the world, but have you ever imagined being the artwork yourself? Treating your body as a canvas you paint on? Or a sculpture you shape? Well, Daniel Lismore, the English artist or in this case the English piece of art tells us how he has been living this life since his teenage years.

Daniel Grew up surrounded by antiques and sculptures sold by his grandparents in their gallery and he fell in love with this glamorous bubble filled with beauty so he decided to imagine that he is living in a very big jewellery box. Lismore says that he is strongly inspired by the work of the photographers David Lachapelle and Steven Arnold and he tried to recreate it into his surreal vision.

"When I get dressed I'm guided by colour, texture and shape. I rarely have a theme. I find beautiful objects from all over the world" Lismore spends hours and sometimes years to make his garments then he carries them out every day, he considers himself as his wall that he hangs his paintings on and the street as his gallery walking around and attracts people to his Avant-guard looks not coming from a couture show from Paris but a normal house like theirs.

Things don't need to be expensive to be beautiful. Try making outfits out of bin liners or trash you found out on the streets. You never know, they might end up on the pages of "Vogue." He says laughing in his ted talk held in 2019, Daniel encourages people to be creative with whatever the medium and the materials they could find, he places things, where they belong, combines sequins and beautiful fabrics with trash bags and broken jewellery, safety pins and most of the times he combines more than 100 tiny pieces into one garment.

He has over 6000 pieces in his collections that he likes to share with others, he showcased his work in galleries and event around the world and has created a name for himself, check out his major looks below and tell us, do you like this type of artwork?
