My Modern Met has introduced us to another masterpiece!
You have to see this street art to believe it. We see some amazing creativity coming from the street art and graffiti world, but this one takes it to a new level…with the use of packing tape. Seriously, this is something to behold as Max Zorn creates some gorgeous portraits through Tape Art. What’s so unusual is the depth of each image as we’re treated to light and shades that turn the image into something like a painting…with tape.
And here’s Max showing us just how he puts up his work on lighting fixtures so that we can enjoy the image as it’s meant to be seen:
Big Note: Max is also running a pretty sweet project (& contest?), Lets Stick Together, where you can apply to get a handcrafted sticker to put up on chosen lighting fixtures anywhere and everywhere. Since he doesn’t travel much, he wants everyone to help him get his art on as many street lights and windows as possible. I’ve got to say that I do like the sound of this project. If you want to help Max, just send him an email with your request to possibly receive a free sticker. Or you can actually help him by buying some art of your very own. Just go to the Lets Stick Together link (second link above) that I have here to get the details of his project.
p.s. If you want to know more about Tape Art and its history, check out www.tapeart.com, as it’s got 23 years of history on the site.
