Streets: Anders Gjennestad aka STRØK (Paris)

One month ahead of his upcoming solo show with Mathgoth Gallery, Anders Gjennestad aka STRØK visited Paris and painted his largest mural to date. After two days of work, THE Norwegian artist completed this 25 meters high piece that nicely presents his recognizable style. Depicting four break dancers in midst of their performance, this mural was like most his work - based on the photos the artist took himself. For this piece, he created realistic stencils from photographs, showing only the person and its shadow. Always playing with the light and shade as well as perspective, the simple idea of recreating these images in a different angle results in an effective optical illusion. Opening on 3rd of June, Enter Title Here will be STRØK's 2nd solo show with the gallery. https://vimeo.com/165979480
