Some packing tape art? Yes please!

I was going through some new arty things on Apartment Therapy and found another amazing street art project by Max Zorn!

This and all the other portraits are created by using several layers or packing tape. This Dutch artist really knows how to tape things in a stunning way. 


I wouldn't be as beautiful as it is without using the light from the back of the art pieces. By cutting and taping onto a piece of flexible Plexiglass, Zorn was able to clamp the artwork onto street lamps, which gave his portraits extra depth by illuminating through many layers of translucent tape.
You can check out more art pieces of Max on his website. And he's also inviting people to pimp street lights with his stickers, so if you are interested in helping to spread this cool idea around in your city, go here.
And for the end - a video of how he actually does it:
