SHOK-1 is a Doctor of Street Art
Harris Jay Rosenberg Alterman — April 7, 2012 — Art & Design
SHOK-1 is a street artist who specializes in designing works that look like x-rays. His creations are so eye-melting that some say he should be given an honorary medical degree from a university.
His works often include bones that resemble the femur bone of a human. In some of this depictions the bones are blended with smoke to create a ghostly aura. This feeling especially comes out when he adds in patches of light where the bones connect as if it's the trail of the skeletal ghost. When he adds in neon colors and faded lettering, his pieces become sugar packed eye-candy. All of his creations appear outdoors and can be seen on walls and pavement.
