Galeria de Arte Urbana
Lisbon, Portugal
Faced with the building's pre-existing form in a masterful way, Vhils sculpted yet another face into a small wall, a piece integrated into the Crono Project, of which he was one of the mentors. By peeling back the surface of the wall at different depths, sometimes even deeper than the plaster and revealing the bricks, the face absorbs the existing window, and the artist integrated it into the composition in a way that is off-center in relation to the building's configuration.

Peeling the wall surface at different depths, sometimes even exceeding the plaster and revealing the bricks, the face absorbs the existing window, and for that the artist has integrated the composition in an off-centered manner in relation to the building configuration.
