Well Feoflip really is the man of the moment. Before Upfest 2016 I hadn’t seen any of his work, or if I had, it had passed me by. Now it seems I can’t go anywhere in Bristol without stumbling upon one of his incredible pieces.
Feoflip, Wilder Street, Bristol, September 2016This face has something of the Easter Island statues about it, maybe given the Picasso treatment. I think it is a stunning piece, but the colours and shades he uses lends his work to blending in with its surroundings. Rarely do his pieces jump out and grab you by the collar, and many folk will just walk on by oblivious. But if you do happen to stop and take a look, you are in for a real treat. These are beautifully detailed and creatively styalised pieces that would look comfortable in many contemporary art galleries.
Feoflip, Wilder Street, Bristol, September 2016Beautiful work…and more of his to come.
I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.

One thought on “462. Wilder Street (10)”
YES, I thought the exact same thing! Parts of the face remind me of Picasso’s metal sculpture at the Daley Plaza, in Chicago. I remember being a child and walking through downtown Chicago with my dad. When I saw Picasso’s sculpture for the first time, I was floored.
