AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Handcut stencil portrait art on reclaimed oxidised steel
Unique
Spray paint
The rust, scratches and weathering are left visivle as part of the composition rather than hidden
The contrast between a tough industrial surface and an expressive animal subject is central to the artwork.
Hand Signed
Using reclaimed metal as teh canvas is a hallmark of many contemporary German stencil artists because each support is unique, making every wor effectively one of a kind, even when a stencil is reused.
About the artist:
maal_ was born in 1971 and lives in the beautiful city of Cologne. He's one of those artists who's hiding behind the wall of life.
Fascinated by street art and inspired by Banksy, van Ray, Ben Eine, and Martin Whatson, he goes through life with open eyes to discover special motifs. It is often the simple that hides the ingenuity.
For maal_, street art means making something new out of what already exists, making something valuable out of what is supposedly worthless, and addressing socially critical issues out of simple illustrations.
