American photographer Allan Teger’ bodyscapes® is a cool set of black and white photographs
depicting miniature scenes on the nude body mimicking various landscapes.

Artist describing the development of his work:

‘I remember the moment that the idea for bodyscapes® came to me. I was thinking that the shape and structure of the universe repeated itself at every level and suddenly I had the image in my mind of a skier going down a breast. this was it – the universe repeating its shapes – a body looking like a mountain. it was also an example of two realities coexisting. the picture could be seen as a landscape and it could also be seen as a body.
although they were different, both perceptions were right at the same time. I knew instantly that I had an entire series of images waiting to be captured on film.’
