We have already said more than once that sometimes in art we are impressed not by what we see, but strictly the opposite. The artist Cayetano Ferrer also adheres to this idea, creating his unusual street art - he decorates ordinary boxes so that they blend into the background! Only up close can you easily see these chameleon art objects!
This project by Cayetano Ferrer, called “Western Imports”, is somewhat reminiscent of a “city within a city” - a project by a German artist working under the pseudonym Evol who makes small houses out of boring city objects. And of course, one cannot but recall Mark Reigelman, who brings more warmth and comfort to his hometown through, say, a bus stop made in the form of a warm room. Together, this trinity represents a special trend of street-art, which is not limited to just drawings on the walls.
Invisible street art Cayetano Ferrer looks very impressive, this guy can be proud of himself. He just put the boxes in different places and painted them so that they blend in with the background. At the same time, of course, they remain quite noticeable, and this is what creates the proper effect and brings a kind of humor to his work.
From 2002 to 2006, Cayetano Ferrer studied at the Institute of Arts in Chicago, since 2008 he began to receive additional education in this area in Los Angeles, graduated quite recently. This year. His works are already well known to a wide range of people, and they are usually very funny - take at least one of his most sensational projects, which are empty sealed packaging from under the goods, hung in different parts of the city. Invisible street art - a relatively new project of the artist, which proves that Cayetano Ferrer is not marking time.

See the world through the eyes of a child. What We See vs. What Kids See by Jeff Wysaski
Children can be envied by looking at how carefree they frolic in the room or on the street, playing football with a crumpled newspaper, or setting up an ambush behind a pile of cushions. Children can be scolded when, in the heat of battle with an imaginary enemy, they break a table lamp, turn over a vase of flowers, or tear off the cornice in the living room. But children can also be understood if you know with what eyes they look at our, adult world, and at those objects that we use every day in everyday life. Eager to try on
