Nychos
Few street artists have as recognizable a style as
Nychos. Looking at a piece by the Austrian spray can virtuoso is like putting on X-ray goggles – his paintings of humans and animals are dissected into layers revealing bone, muscle and veins. Although morbid, Nychos keeps things light and humorous, having dissected icons such as The Little Mermaid, Darth Vader, Mickey Mouse, Ronald McDonald and Batman in famous murals all over the world. We caught up with Nychos – who was featured in the very first issue of SAM – while he was in San Francisco for his latest gallery show, Endless Layers till Consciousness. An item by
Sole Moller in issue 20.
