The Italian street art duo known as Sten & Lex have a unique style – the product of a peculiar hybrid process they call “Stencil Poster”. The duo combine stencil art and poster work to create their enormous murals. Using a halftone style like that of black and white newsprint photographs they apply huge poster murals to a structure. Then the team cuts away long strips to reveal a portrait. Sten & Lex’s murals are interestingly allowed to slowly disintegrate creating an ever changing work of art. The strips slowly peel off the wall waving in the wind like party streamers.
