The BODO Story

By Harlen Troost

BODO is heralded as a canvas painter, sculpture, set designer, music video producer, fashion icon, fashion maker, digital wizard, all while keeping the look of his singular, innovative style.

Completely self-taught, with no formal schooling, Bodo has only recently (within the last 4 years) discovered his capabilities in the arts. It took a very personally troubling series of events that ignited an unrelenting pursuit of passion-driven art. This talent has seemingly appeared from no where, and the limits of creativity and mediums appear to have no bounds. Bodo raises the scale both in size and level of detail; from first attempt as a canvas painter to a year later teaching himself digital design, photogrammetry, creating some of Canada’s most unique augmented reality art works.

Just as his physical paintings are spectacular in the day, Bodo has incorporatedintoeverypaintinga"fluorescentcapability"witha truly immersive experience. The painting glows in spectacular amazementoncethe"blacklight"fluorescentlighthitsthecanvas. Surely a unique bonus for his clients and an exciting new service for events and clubs a like.
