Gorm – Tape drawings

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

Taking a totally different slant on street art is uk based artist Gorm, his  pieces have included piles of ice, the use of snails, and more frequently sugar cement and tape drawings. Each in themselves are peculiar yet have a unique charm to them, down to the way that they have been executed  by Gorm.
My personal favourites of his studies being the tape drawings, this is due to the carefully considered placement of the designs on the pavement aswell as on rock face to create an image that is as equally confusing as they are charming.
Check out some of the photos below, and give his flickr a visit.

Check out this amazing speed painting, one of a series of paintings from illustrator Dan Kitchner. Completed in under an hour, the pieces encompass the theme of the painting well, relating the suggestion of movement with the visible brush strokes and emphasised detail on certain aspects.
