Jaybo aka Monk: Paint My House by Ami Kealoha
Taking on Berlin's largest cathedral, the Berliner Dom, street artist Jaybo recently transformed the facade with a sea of cartoon hands.
The sketch (above) looks like Disney and Hokusai collaborated on the piece, but the luminous realization of it (thanks to the high-powered projectors of Skudi Optix) takes the concept a step further. Contact Tristesse Deluxe for more info on the project and check Circleculture Gallery to learn more about Jaybo's upcoming show there.

Artist Christoph Ernst takes the visual display a step further by installing colored LEDs in the wind turbine blades.

Papergirl Street Art Project
by Ariston Anderson When it comes to street art, it’s difficult not to reinvent the wheel. We often see the same wheatpaste graphics or stencil styles over and over. That’s why we were thrilled that our friend, Berlin artist Aisha Ronniger’s pet project, Papergirl, is starting to gain traction. Ronniger started the project in 2005 when there was still debate over whether or not to...
