Here is a recent installation from Canadian artist Kwest. Kwest is known for an intricate progressive wildstyle, yet he has also been creating sculptures and paintings for some time. His graffiti inspired sculptures capture the movement and form of graffiti’s evolved style, yet they bring more concrete or in this case wood structure. The sculptures are a great progression and are able to utilize the strengths of graffiti’s aestheticism in a contemporary way. Kwest installed this 40′ sculptural installation in a private residence in Toronto earlier this year. The intertwining form builds its way up creating a impressive combination of material and form. Contemporary in nature yet wildstyle in its essence Kwest is able to utilize both aspects to his advantage with this amazing new installation. The artist explains a bit about the piece below.
