Olga by Oli-B, a street artist based in Brussels, Belgium, is a sculpture that puts an interesting twist on graffiti. Known for his vibrantly abstract artworks, he has translated it into a three dimensional sculpture that looks like a modern Picasso painting. At first glance it might look like a cartoonish alien complete with a set of eyes and a sideways mouth.
What makes Olga by Oli-B even more exciting than its interpretation of the traditional graffiti artform is its series of secret compartments. As written on his website, "Olga is able to keep secrets. Look for the hidden parts… Create now your own fantasy world with Olga." Bright and playful, it will appeal to many.
