Walked by these guys at Dolores Park the other day and noticed this masterpiece. The whole thing is constructed from layers and layers of regular masking tape and is a detailer’s dream when viewed up close. Despite its fragile appearance, it is actually quite sturdy! Observe:
This sticky metropolis was created by the folks at Tapigamifashion.com, although their website only features wearable items rather than taped structures at the moment. Hopefully this deceptively complex artform will catch on and soon be found on the coffee tables of Twitter executives everywhere.
I mean, mixtapes have enjoyed a resurgence, and duct tape has prospered for ages (although Eats Tapes might not be playing anymore). Isn’t it time masking tape made a comeback?
I love borderline OCDish art. Totally gorg.
