Underpass Art Four

This is the last of the underpass supports on King St E decorated by artists ShalakAttak, BrunoSmoky & FiyaBruxa. It is the only one depicting a man and is titled "The Worker" as I discovered after a long newspaper article about these pieces was published here a week ago. Tomorrow I will show you the other side of this one.

    I like this a lot...the man's face shows extreme concentration and I can see the wheels and gears turning over on the left. I also love the brick work perspective ... looks like some of those bricks are crumbling off the wall!

    Oh I am curious about the other side. Perhaps a bit warmer? This side is so, powerfully commanding! It is exquisite in design and art!

    These are really stunning. I had seen another Toronto blogger post these back in November. Off to find the article about them.

    He reminds me a bit of Frank Langella, the actor.

    These truly are a fun series, RedPat! Which newspaper did an article on them? I totally missed it!

    OK, you totally got me on this one. It took me a bit to put it all together; I thought initially it was a trick with mirrors.

    It looks like we have a highly sentient proto-man, bicycle gears, and a falling brick wall. Don't see the connection but that face is wonderfully engaging. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
