Amazing 3D Floor Art by Edgar Mueller

You probably all heard about 3D street painting or even got “stuck” in such a fantastic scenery. For now, we won’t get into the history and other definitions of these specific contemporary art expressions, as we plan on elaborating that in a vast post. We will let you get surprised or curious about these new ways of expressing dreams, fears, memories of lost ages, weird things that can only be imagined. And we consider that a proper introduction would be to showing you the works made by one of the most appreciated 3D street artists, Edgar Mueller (Germany). This master of street painting uses the street as a canvas for its pavement art and if one looks from the right spot, his three-dimensional painting becomes the perfect illusion. His main goal is to give a new appearance to urban public life, challenging the people to imagine themselves as characters or to sense a new imaginary environment.

Amazing Ice Sculptures Of London

An artist is challenging global warming by exhibiting ice sculptures of London landmarks outdoors at the height of the British summer.

The ice sculptures of Post Office Tower, The London Eye, St Paul’s Cathedral and Big Ben are on display in the capital.

Artist Percy Salazar created the piece to promote Chinese Harbin Lager for the Taste of London Food Festival.

Spectacular ice sculptures are a celebrated tradition in Harbin, China.

The ice art can be seen at the festival between Thursday June 19 and Sunday June 22.

When the sculptures melt, Mr Salazar could try and pass them off as the River Thames.
