For Journey to South America weekend in August 2000, Bronx Zoo visitors were invited to be painted in a style inspired by the body art of the people of the Amazon Rainforest.

Zoogoers would choose a specific rainforest animal, or give us a key word such as strong or fast. Using modern make-up with a wider color palette, and inventing our own symbolic shapes and patterns based on native designs, our company transformed hundreds of adults and children.
