Edina Tokodi has installed her latest living wall portrait (made completely out of succulent plants) in Brooklyn for the recent Fort Green Garden Walk event. The piece is currently located on the rooftop of Green Spaces NY and will be moved to a public spot in a few weeks. We think it's amazing.

Boxi's latest work, done in Athens, is entitled "To die for". It is part of the 2nd Athens biennial "HEAVEN".

"It's an attempt to portray the blind purity of love, and a wall of belief that can end it all. The work is a reflection upon the sad fate of two young lovers who were killed because of their love."

You can read the story behind the piece here.

The work consists of 11 hand cut life-sized greyscale layers of the stencil. To see how the piece was done watch the video below:

Ji Lee's latest project, "Duchamp Reloaded" can now be seen in various places around the streets of New York

From Ji: "In 1913, Marcel Duchamp took found objects from the streets and placed them in museums. 96 years later, if Duchamp were alive, he may want to do the very opposite."
