The Zeus Graffiti Fish Tank Gives Fish an Urban-Styled Playground
Gil Cohen — June 19, 2013 — Art & Design
Designed by artist Dean Zeus Coleman, the Zeus Graffiti Fish Tank is an impressive piece of plexiglass construction that houses live fish within the confines of classic street-style artwork.
In true street art style, the word fish has been shortened to the basic letters FSH which are all interconnected and sliced through with an arrow to let everyone know that they are now approaching fish territory so they better show some respect. Through this project, Coleman has transformed the traditional tank, giving it a more aesthetic appearance so that it plays a central role in a room's design scheme.
Additionally, the Zeus Graffiti Fish Tank has also changed the landscape of typical graffiti art, turning it from a painted medium to a 3D sculptural construction.
