Where did the sparrow eat? At the zoo with animals! And where do the animals rest after dinner? Young talented artist ROA, a master of creative street art, portrayed it the way he imagines it. And now the wall of a multi-storey building in Johannesburg, South Africa, is decorated with huge silhouettes of sleeping animals. Six floors - six cells, and in them, in relaxed poses, plunged into sleep or afternoon laziness, an elephant and a hippo, a rhinoceros and a giraffe are reclining, and the upper shelves are occupied by horned animals, which are smaller and smaller. And what is interesting = not a single predator. Conflicts are useless here, the author thought, choosing who to move into the improvised mini-menagerie on the wall of the city building.
Realistic poses, as well as some defenselessness of sleeping animals, touch and touch to the depths of the soul. And all because ROA carefully prepared for work, having studied a lot of "live" photographs of animals in order to reproduce their natural postures, and not fantasize about this topic. This is how he achieved a realistic effect, despite all the visible "graphicality" of the drawings.
An avid traveler and fidget, ROA travels the world and leaves his creations in various cities, decorating with street art dull gray urban landscapes, angular nondescript buildings, walls, fences, pipes, bus stops, containers and trailers that come across on the way. You can get acquainted with the work of this artist on his website.
