Hull was full of naked blue people on Saturday morning – all in the name of art

Bit of blue for the dads

Kind of like The Smurfs, only human and naked.

The city of Hull in England was overrun with naked people painted blue for the purposes of a Spencer Tunick art installation.

Estimates from the Hull Daily Mail suggest that over 3,000 people stripped off and blued up for the event, which involved seven giant nude photos in the city centre. The installation is called ‘Sea of Hull’.

While it might sound amusing, some of the images that can be found on Twitter are actually quite mesmerising.

And this lovely aftermath shot, taken in a McDonald’s:
