Graffiti, a popular urban art form, has taken on a new style in the shape of 3-Dimensional designs. Many of these pieces have been conceptualized with 3D polygonal modeling programs; a relatively new artistic resource. The pieces stand apart from traditional graffiti styles, yet incorporate many aesthetic traits of classic graffiti pieces such as the use of perspective and color.
These stunning artworks by the artist Peeta are made from a variety of materials. Some are made from polyurethane and then spray-painted. Other materials that the artist uses include cardboard, wood, fabrics, graphite and cellulose actetate.
Above: “S” – 2003 by Peeta. This piece was created using hand-made cellulose acetate which lends the sculpture a slick, shiny feel.
Traditional graffiti artists often gambled with unlikely and unusual perspectives. These pieces are based on the visual depth created by graffiti artists, bringing the perspective of classic graffiti art to life in beautiful twisting sculptures. Check out Peeta’s site
