Beastman & Jae Copp

Beastman and Jae Copp are currently in their native Australia for The Hours Tower Mural Project.  The project aims to network renowned street artists and inspire more breathtaking collaborations like these.

Beastman’s use of repeated geometric shapes and organic patterns depicts a parallel universe of hope and survival. Beastman brings nature to life in unique, surreal fashion. The rising artist is part of the group The Hours, and his large murals can be found throughout the globe in Australia, London, Berlin, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Tell Aviv and New York.

Jae Copp has worked with wood for many years. When he branched out into different mediums, his understanding of wood continued to influence his use of brush strokes. Copp’s work looks like wood prints on wall; he is an architect of illusions. With one simple image, he can create an infinity of shapes, breeding an almost kaleidoscopic vision. The above mural, “1 Fish 2 Fish” uses repetition in the same captivating manner as Beastman. You don’t have to stare for long for it to become hypnotic.
