ANAMORPHIC Street Art

German street art duo Zebrating is known for their incredible anamorphic murals painted on outdoor railings. The term “zebrating” loosely translates to “making the zebra” and is meant to describe their artistic style. Their mural work is split into stripes and when viewed from just the right angle the stripes merge together to form the whole picture. And you thought painting on a flat surface was difficult?

You can see Zebrating’s art on the streets of  Berlin, Stuttgart, and Mannheim, Germany (where they are from).

BELGIAN GHOST TOWN Becomes Street Artist’s Playground

The 700 year old Belgian town of Doel has become a ghost town. Other than some squatters and a handful of diehard citizens, the town is uninhabited and will be demolished. Doel didn’t become this way because of any typical reasons like lack of employment, rather the government has ordered the citizens to vacate their beloved town in order to make room for the expansion of nearby Antwerp harbor.

Since the forced departing of its residents the town has become something special – a blank canvas to street artists from across Europe, who have left their beautiful creations on the bricks and rubble of its abandoned buildings.

STREET ART IN KYRGYZSTAN

Here's what Aida Sulova has to say about the project:
"I wanted to raise awareness about the rampant garbage problem in Kyrgyzstan, I found that the ugly trash cans in the city can actually serve as a nice canvas to express my concern. I made a series of large photographs of the wide open human mouth and I placed them on the sides of the garbage cans around the city. So they would remind people that what they throw into the world, eventually ends up inside us."
