    “Odenat Buoton” by Dulk in Ecaussinnes, Belgium

    Street artist Dulk recently finish his second mural in Belgium. The artist stated that this piece is his first time painting over a brick surface mural. The piece was painted on a 180 years old school — which was founded by Odenat Bouton who saved a lot of children from the Nazi’s back in WWII.This is my second mural in Belgium, a country where I’m always happy to be back. I finished my art studies there 13 years ago and it’s so special coming back to a place where I grew as an artist after such a long time. Working in this piece has been incredible, since the surface until the great production team from @allaboutth1ngs.Growing makes our personality and knowledge unique for flying to the future.Valencian artist Dulk, Antonio Segura, is one of the most important names in Valencian painting of the moment internationally. His body of work begins to form in urban art and mural painting—to which he remains closely linked today— along with study work, but does not stop there. He continues to research and constantly create new forms of expression through different media, drawing, sculpture or photography among others. True to its essence —with a strong ecological conviction to defend ecosystems and the most vulnerable species— this work invites the viewer to be part of a unique imaginarium, full of energy and with a special sensitivity to colour. A dream world with animals and natural spaces that tells personal, universal and unique stories. More

    New Mural by Onur and James Bullough in Berlin, Germany

    Street artists Onur and James Bullough have collaborated on a new mural in Berlin, Germany. The piece features the artists distinct styles of photorealism and graphic abstractions.Curated by Art agency Millecent, the project is located at Drontheimer St 32, Wedding, Berlin.ABOUT THE ARTISTSOnurOnur is a photorealistic painter and muralist, based in Solothurn, Switzerland. Intense colours and an organically shaped curve characterises the large-format screen of this artist.His motifs are urban cityscapes, suspenseful scenes or room-sized portraits exuding a penetrating power. To achieve this, he does not use traditional brush techniques and still uses the acryl roller from his early days, relying on techniques from theatre painting. The directness of the photorealism, which lets some light-sensitive colours only come to life in the right light, illustrates his drive for depictions. Yet, Onur never views the events from the perspective of reality but instead, he releases that which is seen from its original context to create a new context.James BulloughAmerican artist James Bullough lives and works in Berlin. His style mixes realistic portraiture with graphic abstractions as large murals and as studio paintings.James Bullough grew up in Washington, DC, in the USA and was inspired early by gritty urban graffiti he discovered in the US capital. Bullough taught himself in realistic oil painting techniques by studying the Old Masters of The Netherlands. In combining their technical precision with the momentum of graffiti, his work is about staging compelling contrasts and juxtapositions. More
