My life as a work of art | Daniel Lismore
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 чер 2019
- Daniel Lismore's closet is probably a bit different than yours -- his clothes are constructed out of materials ranging from beer cans and plastic crystals to diamonds, royal silks and 2,000-year-old Roman rings. In this striking talk, Lismore shares the vision behind his elaborate ensembles and explores what it's like to live life as a work of art. "Everyone is capable of creating their own masterpiece," he says. "You should try it sometime."

No one's asking anyone to live their life this way, but the world's a little bit more exciting when someone can.
One message I love about him is that "You don't need to buy expensive things to be beautiful ", love it
We need more people with the courage of being themselves.
I’m not brave enough to wear shorts in public because I feel I’m too pale & you live as art. Absolutely beautiful
Juniper S follow your dreams , be odd , be your true self , this is the future . You are the future and the hero of your own story .
@@flow383 come on bro, comeback to reality
I was just thinking how his "being art" also affects the surrounding locations...Imagine being on a train...then imagine him riding in the car with you. The experience is transformed from the ordinary to the extraordinary. The trip gains color, personality, becomes more dynamic as people interact with his expressive art. The trip is now memorable....💚

I love this💖
Powerfully put
I love Daniel's undying urge to create on a daily basis. He's such an inspiration.
I love people like this. They are who they are so openly and brave. Many people still live in the dark, hiding who they are but with these people, you get exactly what you see.
Statikal he literally said this isn't drag. Did you even watch the talk?
@Statikal An ignorant twats comments are right in front of us. Drag has a predetermined theme (gender). This isn't the case here.
@StatikalBy that definition high fashion in general would be drag, but it isn't.
"Whey are who they are..". Are you sure that this is his real personality? I dont think so. Yes, good dresses can be creative but when you see this castle on around the body it seems that behind that is hiding poor child who are scared to show his real beauty or even imperfection to the world and to himself. So from my point of view there is nothing about being brave
**me when people say that the dress code is "casual"**
palemoonlight96 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Funny , people seem to have forgotten beauty is in the eye of the beholder and if you don't like the creations that's your opinion but I think they are gorgeous and inspiring x There is little enough beauty , fascination and engagement in this world !! What you do is valuable Daniel xx
The art of this man is not something that appeals to my taste. BUT, he has every right to express himself as he wants. And also in that video he sent us a beautiful message about freedom of speech and self-acceptance.
The Icon of creativity, beauty, art and having a great ability to go beyond the expectations... love your talk
Leave him alone. Personally, I appreciate his honesty and admire him openly and adamantly embracing his own differences and doing so in a world as close minded as this. At times it seems nearly impossible to achieve, but he did it. Props to him.😊🙌❤
@@thesure1 just not *AN* important.
People can't appreciate THIS GREAT talk not until you undergo true ALCHEMY inside.
I am watching this while simultaneously live streaming the 2019 VMA red carpet arrivals. What a juxtaposition - a bunch of people looking totally ridiculous trying way too hard to be cool vs. someone just crushing it every day. The world needs more Daniel Lismores.
Amazing insight. Beautiful talk, very inspirational.
I like his taste in clothes. Especially using all that armor! Dude, you're great!
Saw his exhibition at Coventry Herbert museum. Amazing work. Such a talented man. If you can go at see his work do it’s free. Truly beautiful.
Respect for having the balls to do what you do and it's great art aswell
impressive message and so real message.
maybe but i dont think so
Very original and creative! Love it👍👏🙏😇
Sorry not original , look up Leigh Bowery.
Crap, this guy may have nailed what's so great about virtual worlds.
did u just assume xe’s gender?? smfh
@@cxkxr1212 or maybe without jumping to conclusions, he just read the description. Smfh
Absolutely astonishing. I adore it. I admire it. I admire him. Bravo.
How inspiring and absolutely beautiful. Love
!!!!! Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. I am so encouraged by Daniel's life and message. That is what I seek as well, to be fully and completely myself. !!! Thank you sharing your vision and love Daniel. Wow! Love you.
I met Daniel once and he was in his 'normal' day look with long hair (still looking extraordinary). He is a remarkable person and really nice.
So proud of you Daring Daniel Lismore ... I remember how shy you were when I first met you and it's been wonderful to see you blossom into the Extraordinary and Fabulous person you are now. Love and Hugs XOXO
You brought joy, love, venerability and insight to us. Thank you.
This is creatively beautiful♡
Beautifully art, beautiful person.
Get this...the more you spend time with others the more comfortable you become being yourself. Don't be alone.
varun b sweet!
When my custom character show up in a cutscene.
I wonder what his pyjamas look like 🔥
😎👍🏼
I wouldn't be surprised if he slept naked.
Daniel you are incredible, I loved every second of this talk…You truly are a walking piece of beautiful Art, so so creative and inspiring. You live your life exactly who you are, no holding back..thank you for sharing ❤️
I love how people say that the left is easily offended but they're in these comments (Yes, I know who you are, this is a public place after all) being offended by what he's wearing. Even calling him a narcissist? Sounds like self-projection to me. And FYI, I am not a leftist nor a rightist. I am an independent.
@@r33c3spices9 - and you sound like an absolute fuckwit
The giant safety pins make him look like the most fabulous borrower that ever was.
Wow. I'm a bit overwhelmed by how wonderful this was. Thank you Daniel for being you x
You are amazing - inspiring - absolutely beautiful! Thank you!
If there is a more exquisite creature in this world than Daniel Lismore, I haven't come across it.
Extraordinary story: extraordinary person.
Wonder if the life lessons mentioned here are comfortable for most of us, ordinary people.
Daniel I’ve just come from The Herbert and you’ve given me such great joy and encouragement. I’m going back next week. 🥰💫Thanks for being Art.
This is what people forget.
Be yourself, no need for materialism.
I think he did so well. Well done, Daniel- what a great TED talk
the word that I am looking for is BREATHTAKING! LOVED IT!
Charming and inspiring. Truly, thank you Daniel
I loved the outfit that was supposed to be "worst outfit" :) Thank you for sharing about your life!
Rewatched. Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Stunning! Absolutely amazing and inspiring 😍 I also love his (hers?) casual presenting style :D
He
His 😊
A true inspiration to us all. Live *YOUR* life because you're the only one who can, and it's the only life you get. 🖤
Awesome work of art ~
I am truly speechless!
Oh wow! Beautiful creations! And I loved his personality. Very inspiring 😊
Your message is so inspiring, Daniel. Thank you, honestly
Stunning! Thank you for this fascinating address, Daniel.
God you and your art are GORGEOUS!!! Please dress me.! Make me a beautiful piece of art like you!
Brilliant! Love this. He really is art.
LOVE THIS!!
He is truly living a passionate life that's something great not many of us scrolling UA-cam commenting on videos will do that so think before degrading someone who is not trying to be what the society expects and demands
he is not a trans, dont misgender him
@@sonorousgaming7202 sorry I was not aware of that edited my comment
I love the humor, and the idea at the end. This was enlightening.
this is a great introduction to who you are. i have been seeing pictures and post on facebook and i became intrigued and wanted to see if you had a youtube channel but found this TED video. I am a big fan now! awesome!
Weirdly...bizzarly...wildly creative. Surely, he/she will his/her mark in the world. I applaud you greatly!
WONDERFUL! STUNNING! INSPIRING!
This is refreshing and inspirational.
This is what i envisioned for the remake of DUNE by frank herbert
Truly fascinating
so cool!
Bravo! Best work of art EVER! I have at least 3 of me but we seem to be in different timelines. I call out to my other selves daily to please come home to me... stop spreading me around and let's work together. Alas, that is not art but if you need any safety pins I'm sure I could come up with something interesting. Thank you for being so totally and completely you.
Love the look! It's very fun to look at this! An army of me is a Bjiok album. Too beautiful for the everyday wear!💐💐🌿🌿🌺🍃🌵🌵🌴🌾🌾🌷🌳🌴🌷🌷🌷🍀🍀🏵🌲☘🌲😗🍂🏡😅😍😂🤗😅🍂🍂☘🌲🌸🌸☘🌹🌹🏵🏵🌼🌷🌳🌳😭🌴🌾🌾🌺🍃🌵🌿🌺🌺🌾🌾🌷🌷🌹🌹☘🍂😂😅😗😗☘🌹🌹🌼🏵🏵🌴🌴🌾💐💐🌵😭😭🌼🌼🌹🌹🌹
I got goosebumps at the end ❤️
Absolutely beautiful. Wow..
The British are the best eccentrics! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Leigh Bowery is still to me the king of a living piece of art.
I love this speech. I’m trying so hard to be like everyone else...successful and smart. It doesn’t seem to work...I really have to figure out who I am
LOVE this.
I love this. Keep being yourself, Daniel!
“Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” Coco Chanel XD
I love it so much though!!!
Looks like a Dark Souls NPC
THEY'RE MAUGHLIN THE ARMORER'S NEWEST INCARNATION😂😅
@@CoobyPls Was thinking more like Domhnall Of Zena myself lol

I really lovin Daniel. First saw him on clubhouse
Beautiful talk, beautiful dresses, I hope to see them in person one day.
In my mind this is camp looks like.
You are a man of my heart! 😍♡😍
Absolutely incredible ❤️
Truly beautiful!
I suppose it’s good to understand that you’re not comfortable being yourself, and creating your own space. I would have to ask myself why I am so uncomfortable being me.
Beautiful Message Beautiful Spirit
I wish I could see this in real life. This expands the limits I place on myself.
Amazing, love you
THE EMPEROR OF THE KNOWN UNIVERSE
