The human body is a natural inspiration for any artist. Personally, I love the idea of playing around with the architecture and geometry of the human body. I have a paradoxical view of our bodies: they are very geometric but oh so very organic at the same time. These images offer geometric yet organic takes on the human body.

Valerio Carrubba breaks it down into something surreal and very organic. The human anatomy is something artists must understand on a scientific level too fully portray its true beauty. Surrealism and science aren’t things that are often paired together but Valerio Carrubba does it with such grace.

Bits and pieces form visions of ghostly figures. Antony Gormley is renown for his sculptures of human bodies, some of which are formed using casts and others are illusions formed by clusters of geometric objects. Haunting.

Unfortunately, the last image is from an unknown artist. I recall searching for Greek art when I stumbled upon this image. The thread for this sequence of images of the form of the human body and art. Again, human anatomy is a displayed in an artful manner; the lines and muscles of our bodies piece together to form a figure frozen in time.
