Franko B

Franko B is an Italian performance artist who is based in London. Franko B uses his own body in his art. His work focuses on the visceral and he uses his own blood as a medium. He makes his body into a canvas to try and portray ''the pain, the love, the hate, the loss, the power and the fears of the human condition''.
The thing I like about this image (Below) is the way Franko tries to get across a message by the use of blood and dirt. I think he is trying to get across the theme of 'pain' by the use of the blood all running down the head and the colour red hich is a pretty strong colour which could mean either love or pain. The only materials used here is the blood and the back of the head. Also the triangles rule could come in here or maybe even thirds.
