DALeast Delhi A few months after his last solo show in NYC went on a two month trip around China, Nepal and India. He timed his travels to arrive in Delhi on time to participate in the local St+Art Project with a fresh mural. Inspired by his personal experiences during the trip around Asia, especially India, the new piece represents the everyday chaos and crowds, yet all being functional and organized to some extent. The image of the chaotic flock of birds refers to such a state – “people, cars, cows, dust, agendas, directions, wishes, hopes, gains and losses, all we can think of in the human world is manifested there, and the stream of it all is mixed up in the air.” The deeper story behind this effective image of birds flying through an arched window is the question of “where are we going to and where/when is the end.” Unlike his usual works showing one major character, this piece feels much lighter and almost detached form the surface. This is mostly due to strong contrast between the black birds and pink background, and even more so – the very effective perspective and shading details he achieved.

What is the object that appears to the right of the animals head with antlers? It looks circular?

The cat appears to be body boarding the antelope on a wave with a frog watching on - squiggle tastic

Very steep. For same price, I spend 3 days at Masai Mara, full inclusive for family of 4 It was great, we saw a leopard kiling a dik-dik and a cheetah killing a Thomson gazelle... on top of the usual lions, elephants, etc. Your post kinda puts the whole 'art collecting' in perspective. We all get caught up collecting pretty pieces of paper but it's life experiences like going on a safari that will be the ones that stay with you for far longer and have a bigger impact than a piece of art.

It's a massive print, low edition, costing is probably along with demand. People queued up over night in freezing temperatures for one of his prints in new york earlier this year.
Good luck guys as this will sell in seconds
