On the second day, the festival transitioned into a jam session on the private island, where artists surrounded by pure nature painted their models without borders. This relaxed environment allowed for spontaneous creativity, and was captured by our crew photographers Daniel Janesch and Alex Barendregt!

Overall, the Bodypainting Festival Hvar celebrated artistic excellence and underscored the importance of ocean conservation. The event was a resounding success, leaving participants anticipating next year’s edition.

This all was possible with the help of our dear supporters - the Hvar Tourist Board and local organizer Lorena Matas - thanks for the hospitality and dedication to the art of bodypainting! See you next year!
