Human billboards: Liberia’s new advertising trend
Liberia has a long tradition of body painting for religious and traditional rites. But for advertising, this medium is completely new and hopefully profitable.
On the streets of the Liberian capital, Monrovia, a new form of artwork is grabbing attention: the human billboard.
This business has changed the nature of advertising in the country as many clients prefer human billboards to conventional printed ones.
