It is not exactly a mural but a mega-mosaic in Amsterdam made by the artist Fabrice. For over 30 years Fabrice has been active as a creator of paintings, drawings, mosaics an 3-dimensional works. Here he made of an ugly transformer building a piece of art. The title is "the Compass".

What a fabulous way to decorate an otherwise unattractive piece! I love the use of the mosaic! Great find!

BeantwoordenVerwijderenA great mosaic! Thanks for sharing.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenAn amazing mosaic. It must have taken a lot of time and patience.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHow much detail can be seen in this mural! This is the first time ever I heard about Fabrice. Great artist!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenOh but it is a mural, and a fabulous one at that. I love the fact that it is a transformer underneath, how spectacular that a city utility cares enough to cover something so ugly in such a great way!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThat is nice. I cannot imagine the time it took to do that.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenNice!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI remember Fabrice from an earlier post of yours. This mosaic is very cool and must have taken him a lot of time to complete. I appreciate the utility company allowed this. It brightens the spot and delights the eye. Thanks for participating in this week's Monday Mural.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThat is one huge transformer housing! One might never guess what was behind it.
BeantwoordenVerwijdereno wow! thats so pretty!!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenhows the weather? we had heavy heavy rain here on saturday. and cloudy yesterday, but it was still warm.
