French urban art group Bat ArT Error has taken a mass of old posters and turned them into something truly wonderful. The group carved a mass of posters into a work of art reminiscent of a middle ages painting.
Bat ArT Error spent a few days carefully carving away at the posters until they had a scene depicting hooded figures in various stances along with a scary skull and crossbones. I really wish something like this could be done in my city.
