Kanos – Cellograff Art

Alex Kanos is from Paris France.

Artist: Kanos
Artist: Kanos

Being a talented graphic & street artist wasn’t enough, so Kanos developed a new art. He has had this art form copyrighted or trademarked. (Can’t remember which)

Artist: Kanos
Artist: Kanos

It begins with scrunched up lengths of cellophane, which are then spray painted first with black. The horizontal streaks are cellophane scrunches.

Artist: Kanos

He then adds color. Here red & dabs of yellow are added to the front.

Finally, purple was added to the back. It shows through to the front. There are other creative applications. Check out Kanos Website to see.

“FESTIVAL” was his second piece, & completed on the 2nd day. The piece he began on the 1st day was cut in half by hooligans during the night. They were caught & slept in jail.

On day 1, the rain washed away all of the Chalk Artists’ efforts. On day 2 they worked very hard to make up time that was lost to nature.
