This Graffiti Artist Makes Walls Appear Transparent Using Nothing But Spray Paint
Street artists have a knack for disrupting the environment and catching passersby attention. Many artists have a way to make their art interact with the surroundings and send a message that no one can ignore - as their canvas has no limits. Each great graffiti artist has their own style and something that makes them stand out from the rest. What makes this 34-year-old Portuguese artist, Vile, different? It's his raw talent for carving his name into walls using just a spray paint can.
Vile, whose real name is Rodrigo Miguel Sepúlveda Nunes lives in Vila Franca de Xira, Portugal. He started spraypainting graffiti drawings when he was just 14 years old. By studying Cartoon & Animation Films and Drawing and Illustration and polishing his skills in such techniques as watercolor, oil, charcoal, digital drawing, and tattooing, Vile gradually became a skilled graffiti and wall mural painting artist. His undeniable talent has been recognized internationally with brands like OPEL, TMN, Worten, and the Portuguese Red Cross featuring his unique art.
Vile's intricate 3D art that allows us to see through walls hardly allows anyone to walk past it without looking twice. Often portrayed on abandoned buildings, his detailed graffiti art pieces expose the mysterious interior that is hidden from our eyes.

I wouldn't mind seeing a bit of this, instead of street gang tags. Railway oil or potash tank cars would be a good venue.
Let's see, the cost of his airline ticket, numerous cans of paint, and nope, I can't afford him to do my dining room!!!
IMAGINE— Someone trying to walk through that. Go to the other room. WHOMP
Most are truly fascinating, but I really think this one should have been left as it was.
what happens when the landscape changes and the grass turns a different color?
Ah, yeah, you're right. That's what it looks like.

Seeing this, it makes you wonder, if someone was running and it was getting dark would they think that they could run through the opening? Fantastic work!!
I was thinking of someone trying to walk through

This is the first one that looks even remotely like it was painted
wonderful and great message i see you dude, good job you can come paint on my house anytime :)
Not quite as convincing as the others were, but still INCREDIBLE artwork amazing job!
That was a bad choice, in my opinion, to put one there. Cause the wall in so bumpy. Still very cool.
#9 is stunning with womens faces and standing in the dry grasses. This one I would have liked to see in person so as not to miss any of the detail. Wonderful work. Bravo!
I think these are like pavement art, they only work really well from one particular direction…so as you got closer they would look way less convincing, you'd have to work at missing the illusion.

I sure HOPE he hasn't spayed in that gutter. That's not a safe place for animal surgery. It's sprayed, not spayed.

Vile must have sore trigger fingers all the time! it is hard after a while holding down the spray paint nozzle and your finger always get frozen from the chemicals inside. He does good work though!
Why do you write "first" everywhere, what does that mean in that context?
Load More Replies...These are great, but would be much better if they didn't all say "vile". The artist has typecast himself.
he should stop painting abandoned building and start painting still in use building!!!!
ONLY if he is invited by the owner/s to do so.
