How does Patrick Rochon create his work?

Patrick Rochon uses his friends, in total darkness to create his light paintings using a range of different light tools, like single LED lights or a block of flashing lights to create different effects. Also he tells his friends not to move but they can breathe. He uses a camera on a long exposure setting so that he can create the light paintings.

He used 2 guys that he found at an Opening in Tokyo that were covered in white and dressed in nearly nothing and they started to collabrate. Their presence was so strong that he found that the light just came out.

Patrick Rochon began to work on a series with nudity and he uses thin lines for the body so that the audience can see that the body is lit but hidden at the same time. It shows of the body as much as it hides it.
