This dynamic shipping container art piece by Pichi & Avo was created just for the North West Walls Street Art Festival. Rather than just painting the side of one shipping container, the renowned graffiti duo stacked multiple shipping containers one on top of another, creating a piece that reached into the heavens.
The monumental piece of graffiti features a mix of urban street art and imagery of Greek god in splashy bright colors. Although these paintings are completely 2D, some of the shading makes it looks as though you could reach out and touch the godly statues. One of the most impressive pieces on the shipping containers stands three units tall and features a large image of a sitting Greek figure.
