Cibo, a 30-something artist himself, is nothing short of a performance artist, and my camera never really did capture his fullest essence. His mental flexibility, openness, and sheer creativity was an absolute and humbling pleasure to work with.

In this picture pack of 38 original-size black-and-white photos, Cibo is fully naked and covered in oily black paint. This was a very challenging photoshoot for us both, and his icky, resigned, and defeated poses and expressions tell the tale. Thumbnails of all pictures can be found in my Gungedawg UMD profile.
