Jump and Climb: amazing black and white murals of people in movement by Anders Gjennestad

Norway-born, Berlin-based street artist Anders Gjennestad, aka STRØK, creates amazingly realistic monochromatic murals with 3D effects of people jumping and climbing the walls. He cleverly plays with the light and shadows to produce this optical illusion.

Shadows give more information on the characters. A long shadow gives it more perspective. The transparent paint lets you see what it is like when the shadow is added to the character. People can look distorted from above so the shadows show where the arm is or the foot is placed. It helps to make sense of the characters.
