The streets of almost all cities in the world are almost equally gray and boring. Anything that adds variety to the dull industrial landscape mainly refers to the signs and showcases of shops and cafes. But there is more. Sometimes, walking along the streets of the city, we see here and there, painted walls. The attitude to this is always unequivocal: “Vandals!”, We exclaim indignantly. But there are street artists who can transform an ordinary empty gray wall into a real work of art.

Street art has a very bad reputation. Often this is pure vandalism, which of course is a crime that requires punishment under the law. A talented artist lives in Milan Cosimo Chone Kaifa … He creates amazing pictures on empty spaces of the city. In some of them, you can even become a part of the plot - after all, these are stunningly realistic interactive 3D canvases.

“The idea was born out of a desire to get out of the box. In all my projects, I try to leave an emotional message about worry, joy of life and just about what surrounds me,”says the artist. There are infinitely many different types of art for self-expression. Street art is one of them.

This is visual art, it is quite young and is characterized by terms such as "postgraffiti", "independent public art".

Not all street artists are illegal. In many cities around the world, the authorities even set aside special places for this, where graffiti artists can come and paint absolutely calmly and legally. Some artists even get permission to create their work.

The most common street art is spray paint graffiti. There are stencil graffiti, various posters and stickers are used. There are even street installations and sculptures. Absolutely all the works that we see in public places can be attributed to street art. Master of street art, Cosimo Kaifa creates graffiti in 3D. His paintings interact with surrounding objects and buildings, and sometimes with passers-by. Various optical illusions are created from different angles of view.

Cosimo Chone Kaifa was born in Turkey, on the Gallipoli Peninsula, on May 26, 1979. Since childhood, he was madly in love with drawing. Otherwise, it was probably impossible, because all of Cosimo's family and friends, to one degree or another, were associated with art, he grew up surrounded by him.

At first he mastered the technique of painting on canvas, but then he heard about such a phenomenon as graffiti. This direction was very much carried away by the artist. Cosimo worked very hard on his skill, improved his technique and now his 3D street art works are simply amazing.

Cosimo's technique, his style of work are all extremely exciting. The way he plays with perspective is simply amazing. On the one hand, from one angle of view, his work can look very strange and deformed. But, when viewed from the other side and from a different angle, it looks completely normal. It is the use of this technique that gives the same 3D effect.

At the same time, the image turns out to be three-dimensional and incredibly realistic, it seems that the picture is part of the environment. It is very difficult to create such an effect. This requires an excellent knowledge of the theory of fine art and the ability to effectively use what surrounds you.

Kaifa possesses all these qualities. His street art work is insanely popular. The artist's vision, interpretations, the ability to masterfully, to the maximum, use the environment, have earned him wide fame and, one might even say, glory.
