When I was visiting Vienna in February, I discovered a couple of murals side by side next to a playground outside the centre of the city. The artwork features the work of two artists - Millo and HNRX. Both artists have painted in London, so their work was instantly recognisable to me.
HNRX creates street art that is in a "comic surreal" style, and many of his pieces feature food items combined and matched into surreal items. In this work, it shows a deconstructed sandwich with the ingredients located on the wall above each other.
Millo is an Italian artist who creates illustrations in a black and white style with his character being a part of the work, and he usually creates cityscapes or geometrical patterns. His work reminds me of comics or graphic novels. The work usually incorporates the design of the building. In the work, the character is shown with a backdrop of the cityscape holding onto a corner and appearing to fly.
