The legendary London-based graffiti artist 'Shok Oner' has once again painted the streets with his newest vivid graffiti. The pieces use anatomy as the main subjects with which he then combines them in an aesthetically appealing way that is illuminated with a rainbow-like color theme.
What's amazing about 'Shok Oner' is his ability to paint the light surrounding the bones in a way that creates an ethereal effect. It's as if there is a hazy layer that is reflecting the vibrant theme outward. The completely black backgrounds serve as a great way to highlight the subjects of the vivid graffiti by creating a massive contrast between both.
The two pieces that stand out the most are the human hand stretching out across the canvas and the arching spine cascading along the wall to create an effect that makes it look like it's moving.
