Street Art by Edgar Mueller...

ICE AGE

My bawse emailed this to me and I thought it was pretty dope. I could be late, but this looks like something that Marcus Troy Kanye has probably posted on his site. Oh well, it's my first time seeing it...kind of makes me want to get back into drawing/art.

Edgar Müller - a Master of 3d Pavement Art - needed 5 days to the complete this huge picture. Together with up to five assistant he painted all day long from sun rise to set. The enormous illusion is reached by applying the anamorphic technique to a huge pavement painting. Around 250 square meter large this picture is part of Edgar's newest project. He paints over urban areas to give them a different look and thereby challenge the audience's perception.

Check out LAVABURST after the jump...

LAVABURST

Residential buildings and a couple of business are strung together. The look falls to an apparently quite normal street of a German, medium-sized town. But an apocalyptic scene offers itself to the observer. The floor has burst and lava flow into a raging sea there where cars ran once and the people followed their weekday. Nothing is like it once was. The superior elemental force forces its way. Appearances are deceptive. If one looks of the right point of view, Mueller's three-dimensional painting becomes the perfect illusion.
