perspective

Around the age of 25, Müller decided to assign himself completely to street painting. He traveled all over Europe, making a living with his transitory art.

Because of his foundation in traditional painting and modern communication, Müller uses a more simple and graphic language for his art. He paints over large areas of urban public life and gives them a new appearance, thus challenging the perceptions of passers-by. The observer becomes a part of the new scenery offered. Edgar Müller’s extraordinary art has been widely covered in print and digital media.

Edgar Müller needed 5 days to complete this giant picture. Together with up to five assistants he painted all day long from sunrise to set. The enormous illusion is reached by applying the anemographic technique to a huge street painting. Around 250 square meters large this picture is part of Edgar's newest project. 

He spent five days, working 12 hours a day, to create the 250 square meter image of the crevasse, which, viewed from the correct angle, appears to be 3D. He then persuaded passers-by to complete the illusion by pretending the gaping hole was real.

Playing with perspective

We can do some crazy things on a picture without even using Photoshop. We just have to play with perspective, take the right angle and shoot. Here is a nice selection of such pictures.
