Street art has had a bad reputation, some people even think it's a crime, but there are some amazing artists out there who transform empty walls and spaces into works of art. That’s exactly what Milano-based street Artist Cosimo Cheone Caiffa does, but with a twist. He creates amazing 3D interactive pieces that look stunning.

The artist makes boring spaces pop out with his 3D technique. If you take a picture with the street art at the right angle, you can even become part of the piece. "The idea was born from the desire to get out of the box, and in all my designs I try to send messages of unease, the joy of life and what surrounds me," said the artist to Bored Panda.

I’m trying to figure out how the hand grip was done, and where the actual lamp post begins and ends.

There are many ways to express yourself and many forms of art. One of them is street art. It's visual art created in public locations, there are other terms for this art form, like "post-graffiti", "independent public art". In many cases, a graffiti artist performs their art illegally, but now there are special locations where they can come and draw without fear. Some artists even get permission to create their artwork.

I see a man's face in the sock next to where his big toe pop's out? Guess it is just pareidolia?

The way Cosimo works is fascinating. He plays with perspective very well. From one angle, his artwork will look weird and deformed, but from another, it will look completely normal. Using this technique, he makes his art jump out and makes it seem like its part of the environment. It's not easy to do this kind of work, you have to have an eye for it, know art theory very well and use your surroundings efficiently.

Hopefully, you will enjoy his work!

Another great one that deserves more up-votes. I guess that it might be this low because it's not a cute image whatsoever.
