German street artist “1010”
turns buildings into dreamy, bottomless pits of color with his murals.
His two most recent, titled “Enter the Vortex”, are part of the
international street art festival Memorie Urbane
in Fondi, Italy. They represent his signature style of layering colors
two dimensionally to create a 3D optical illusion that tricks the eye.
The result turns something beautiful and mesmerizing out of blank,
unattractive spaces. Colorful shapes take on the form of strange animals
and other various compositions that leave the viewer to ponder the
inexplicable. 1010’s ability to duplicate such meticulously painted
shapes is equally organic and mathematical. They are emotive in their
simplicity. In addition to his walls, 1010 also exhibits similiar
abstract paintings, and has a concurrent exhibition at Backside Gallery
in Marseille, “Mise en Abyme”. Take a look at 1010’s murals, and some of
his most recent works below, courtesy of the artist.
