In a small car park off William Street.. part of the FORMPublic project back in April, a mesmerizing mural by Italian artist Never 2501 (good link with short video of the maestro at work). This mural has been on my agenda since I first caught sight of it in the FORM booklet so yesterday I was determined to view and take some pics. Seriously stunning.. the undulating black & white lines give the illusion of movement which I think you can experience even from the photos oui!
Ok this one is just to mess with your eyes :) Funny story.. I was so absorbed, and slightly hypnotized while taking these shots I didn't realize I had an audience, as I turned to walk back to the car I heard a voice from behind.. 'aren't you going to take picture of us'.. two workers, I laughed and shouted back 'spread out on the wall like a work of art and you're on', I don't know who was more surprised them or moi :) Hope your week has started well, happy Monday, take care..
That is so good, Grace!
ReplyDeleteso creativ !!!
ReplyDeleteMesmerizing indeed... it does look like it's moving!
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing. I'd get dizzy just looking at it! And if I was driving, I probably run into a tree while being mesmerized by this mural! :)
ReplyDeleteI typically like color murals better, but this one is definitely tops! Love the mesmerizing effect. Wish you got a shot of the workers too though. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome, Grace!! And what terrific captures!! Yes, mesmerizing indeed, I couldn't agree more! Hope your week is off to a great start!! Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, it's a tie for the best mural of the week. I had one picked out as the winner and then saw this. Very nice. Hope you don't mind sharing the honors.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I can definitely feel the movement. ;) It's stunning!
ReplyDeleteCool! Once again you make the rest of us amateurs!
ReplyDeleteBellissimo!
ReplyDeleteAnd you had a wonderful sky to complement it! :-)
Nice walls !
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely fascinating mural by this artist Grace, and how strange, I really did have to blink a few times after looking at the photos.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is pretty neat and an eye catcher for sure.
ReplyDeleteAwesome!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I'd like to see that one in person.
ReplyDeleteTake 25 to Hollister
What a great optical illusion!
ReplyDeleteHow cool! It will make me dizzy though staring at it for too long :)
ReplyDelete"Undulating" was a great word to use to describe this. As I scrolled up and down to look at the photos they seemed to be moving and flashing before my eyes. Just stunning.
ReplyDeleteI once had a shirt like that. It was interesting to iron. The images above dance on the screen when I am scrolling.
ReplyDeleteA cross between Op art & Zentangle!
ReplyDeletewhat a hypnotic wall. i love it.
ReplyDeleteThe lines really seem to be moving...Great mural Grace.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'd like to open my curtains and look out on it first thing in the morning! Otherwise it's fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThat is an amazing mural. It shimmers when you scroll over it. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteI feel dizzy :). What an amazing design. Really like it.
ReplyDeleteThat cannot have been easy to paint. The effect is mind altering Grace.
ReplyDeleteTerrific captures, Grace! Now I'm completely dizzy! :-)
ReplyDeleteTruly awesome work, Grace! On my list it just went :-)
ReplyDeleteWell, at least I know why I'm thinking ZEBRAS today.
ReplyDeleteWow and wow again.
ReplyDeleteNice skies and a painting pattern.
ReplyDeleteFabulous mural, Grace! Some of the American artist Sol Lewitt's work has similarities.
ReplyDeleteSteffi said it all. I can't even begin to imagine how the artist rendered this complex design on a huge wall standing in a cherry picker. Thanks, Grace, for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
ReplyDeleteIt's brilliant.
ReplyDeleteFantastic!
