Untitled: Do & Khatra 3

Do and Khatra are an artist duo from India who have been working together as street artists since 2013. Known for their snazzy style and playful features, their illustrative murals are usually more contextual than they appear to be. A mural that wraps itself around the facades of the warehouse, their project at Sassoon Dock does not just beautify and transform the walls, but also gives itself an expressive shape.

An amalgamation of colours, the facade moves from figurative design and transforms itself into abstract shapes that are still contextual to the elements from the dock. The duo also uses three-dimensional found objects at the site to add specificities to the mural. Moreover, taking on from their creative disposition, they use the columns to create a vantage point for their spectators, giving them a display of character and arrangement.
