Spanish street artist Sam3 - the author of a beautiful graffiti called "A park"decorating the wall of one of the buildings in Barcelona. In the picture, you can see four trees, the crowns of which resemble the silhouettes of people facing each other.
Sam3's work is interesting because of how the images of nature and man are organically intertwined in the drawing. There is a feeling that people-trees are conducting a leisurely dialogue with each other, birds flying from eyelid to branch become their voices. The artist himself explains: "Small birds are the words of trees."
If you look closely, you can see a large number of birds on the branches of one tree, from a distance the crown looks as if it was woven from openwork patterns. The second crown-head is still empty, several birds are heading towards it. This surreal picture visualizes the act of speech, a kind of exchange of experience, the transfer of knowledge from one person to another.
Artist Sam3 is from Madrid. He has been working in street art for many years and managed to become famous all over the world. His works can be found on the streets of Argentine, Italian, American, French and Portuguese cities. Usually these are large-scale black and white images, laconic and filled with deep philosophical meaning.
More works by the talented artist can be seen on his personal website.

Toe art. The art of talking on your fingers
Contemporary art has special forms and horizons. And these horizons are wider and wider every day.

Although about the latter I'm not sure
Smart "suits" for cell towers. Fake trees in the New Trees art project
Since today telephone communication is available in all corners of the globe, it is logical to assume that cell towers of mobile operators should be located almost everywhere. But all around there are only picturesque landscapes, without ugly metal structures visible on the horizon, distorting this beauty. The fact is that installation companies have long learned to disguise cell towers for trees and architectural structures. They are collected by photographer Robert Voit in his photo project New Tree
