Diogo Machado aka Add Fuel recently took part in this year’s edition of Perth’s Public2016 festival. First time in Australia, working with great lienup of international artists, Lisbon-based artist created a large mural filled with his signature Portuguese tiling visuals.
Incorporating the architectural elements into his work, Add Fuel layered couple of different patterns of custom made tile stencils, created exclusively for this event. His mosaic like structure allowed him to work with this round surface, creating a pretty unique effect of the wall peeling off and revealing its past. With simple tear and shade effect, the layers form an illusion of depth, giving the whole piece an artificial timeline and background.
