Cut Loose With Sten And Lex

posted in: Style & Culture | 1

Incognito Italian street artists, Sten and Lex use a very interesting and time consuming stencil technique they call “hole school”. The painstaking process begins by cutting out a huge stencil and pasting it on a poster. They then proceed with painting everything black. The stencil is then peeled away, leaving a negative image of what has been dissected. Small scraps are left behind as the stencil is destroyed and infused in the art piece. Sten and Lex will be showing in NYC at the Brooklynite Gallery this Fall.
