cover ups...

...  hiding a construction site by Amsterdam station centraal


I guess some may see these as samples of what it's considered street art(?), a "cheep" effort to cover an ugly site with a forced cheerful collage of images. Well, these amazing illustrations are presently covering a construction hiding wall by the entrance to Amsterdam's Central Station. They are so incredibly effective not only in camouflaging an eye sore, but also in causing a disappearing effect to the noisy and amorphous surroundings by pulling you into a world of red mystic beauty and exotic fairy tale. At least that's how I felt and that's how I will always remember the spot where this wall stood for a while...

  1. This is great. It would be wonderful if creating these wall images could be a source of work, money making for artists.
