3D Escapist Street Signs

Yuki Matsueda Plays With Dimension to Break All Ordinary Rules

It's one thing to conform to boring, one-dimensional street signs, but one gets a whole different feeling when obeying the incredible 3D art sings by Japanese artist Yuki Matsueda. These artworks are definitely attractive and easy to pay attention to. The series is fun, creative and unique -- the pieces certainly break the mold.

Matsueda's work consists of signs, ordinary elements and abstract images trying to escape the plastic frame they're put into. The artist creates a 3D piece by giving the impression that the subject of the image has come to life and is trying to escape its constraints. My favorite has to be the exit man trying to actually exit -- it's extremely ironic and eye-catching.

Yuki Matsueda is a young artist whose intentions were to express through art the need to break with everyday rules and boundaries.
