Cayetano Ferrer



Cayatano Ferrer is breaking a traditional purpose of graffiti to be seen into making it look transparent and almost invisible. He paints an object to be the one with the background. These street art installations were presented as Cayetano's projects "City of Chicago" and "Western Imports". He creates an transparency optical illusion that makes the people who walk by look twice.

ELLA & PITR

In the frame, a fantasy space in pink shade with full blossom which looks like a part of fairy tale. Three individuals - inside and outside of the frame - gazes at the person who's viewing the this photo as they scatters the cherry blossom flowers. 


How was it? Didn't you felt a bit puzzled? If you continue to staring at the picture for a while, you'll get a light bulb in your head and get what this picture actually is. I'll talk about ELLA & PITR, French graffiti group artist. 


They setup 3-dimensional frame using hidden spaces, and actual person steps into the frame then become a part of the image. This is similar to the concept of Trick Eye Museum, where visitors interactive with the 2-dimensional images to become 3-dimensional!


Scattered flower, a man cleaning blowing trashes, children playing hide-and-seek, a child fluttering her feet after breaking a dish, long doodles on the wall - this group of artists did great job on capturing moving moments while everything is going along quickly. Take a look at more of their works:


Just like their works, if you want to be part of the scene, Trick Eye Museum is there for you! Interactive with the 2D images, and become part of 3D moments!

Hongdae Picasso Street

In Korea, Hongdae (홍대, short form in Korean for Hongik University) is famous for their art department and ability of their students. So Hongdae area is known for place full of art and youth and these environmental influenced the students who studies art to create their own paintings over street. From mural to graffiti, all of the paintings are amazing as it is, but made the street to be stand out. And this place is called "Hongdae Picasso Street" (홍대 피카소거리, Hongdae Picasso geori)!

Here are some of the paintings:



It's located right next to the Children's Playground that I've introduced you last time, but not every paintings are located in the same area! You have to walk around the alleys to find all these paintings for the negative side of this area. 

But if you're in the area on sunny days, take a camera and have little tour around the alleys. It can be a treasure hunt for the day of your life :)
