Kurls-kurls? Street Artist Super A and his Giant Pigeons
The Dutch artist Stefan Thelen, who took the pseudonym Super-A, has a special love for birds, which manifests itself in the desire to paint huge birds on the facades of houses.
Street artist Stefan Thelen created a series of portraits of pigeons as part of the Muralgoesfest, among which a 32-meter image of a bird on the side facade of a high-rise building stands out.
An impressive work of art! An oversized dove with a characteristic inquisitive expression of the eyes, as if conveying a thought from a distance: A big bird is looking at you!
Other murals, executed at different times in other places, are less large-scale, but also dominate the urban environment, changing its aesthetic impact.
The space around the beautifully executed bird paintings is transformed, riveting the attention of passers-by, who view the masterfully executed details - colorful metallic luster reflected from the bird's plumage, color gradient transitions of incredible beauty, precise contour lines.
Pigeons made the artist famous after he created a whole series of these birds as part of the MuralGoes festival. All pigeons have beautiful plumage, proud posture and inquisitive eyes. Looking at his giant birds, I want to say that they convey thoughts at a distance. Or maybe the artist himself inspires us with a love for birds?
