Form PUBLIC, Alexis Diaz..



Another amazing piece created during the Form Public project, a full scale work by Puerto Rican artist Alexis Diaz in Wolfe Lane.. you really have to pull it in and check the detail.. well you don't have to but it's seriously worth the time! I read here that he stopped in Melbourne soon after, you'll have to see if you can find this one Joe or Andrew.  Ahh! so many more to come :) Happy Wednesday, take care.. p.s. last shot to show scale.
Joining Murals from around the world..

  14. Your city has some top-line wall art. Looked at one way, this felt like the surface was being peeled away revealing a low relief of an animal underneath.

  15. It shares that super-realistic, super-fantasy world with some of the sculpture I saw recently. There must have been a lot of blank walls in Perth before this lot got busy with the paints.

  16. This style reminds me very much of the illustrations by Graeme Base in his many children's books.
