"Ghillie suits are an intersection of landscape and clothing that allow soldiers to become their background - a cloaking of the body by environment.

The derivation of ghillie, is the Scots Gaelic for 'boy' - and its English usage specifically referred to servants assisting in deer stalking, hunting or fly fishing expeditions in the Scottish Highlands. 

There are echoes of the mythical Green Man - a pagan human-landscape hybrid figure - both visually and etymologically.

A Ghillie Dhu is a Gaelic term for meaning Dark Servant - a faerie or guardian spirit of the trees. From Wikipedia:

"A Green Man is a sculpture, drawing, or other representation of a face surrounded by or made from leaves. Branches or vines may sprout from the nose, mouth, nostrils or other parts of the face and these shoots may bear flowers or fruit. Commonly used as a decorative architectural ornament."

The Green Man isn't a singular character, but seems to have evolved in a variety of culture. Even within English culture there are variegated Green Man:

The Foliate Head - completely covered in leaves
The Disgorging Head - spews vegetation from its mouth
The Bloodsucker Head - sprouts vegetation from all facial orifices." added on 2008-10-06

"The netherlands is historically known for creating some of the finest landscape painters. levi van veluw is a dutch artist who creates landscapes of a different sort.
his series of 'self-portraits landscapes', use is own face as the canvas. the series is the latest in a series of face based works. 'material transfers' shows van veluw covered in carpet, wood and rocks and in ballpoints he uses his face as a more literal canvas for ballpoint pen drawings." added on 2008-10-05
