The Hallucinatory Murals of Shida

Using dizzying line work, Australian street artist Shida creates aggressive, frenzied murals with psychosexual undertones. Through the busy array of thin lines that appear splattered onto the wall in a miraculously ordered fashion, one can make out sinister characters with bulging breasts and thick thighs. Part human, part monster and part beast, Shida's characters seem to grin with mischief as they creep and slither away in their mysterious world of fever-inducing colors. Take a look at some of Shida's latest works, images courtesy of Shida.
