Adding Depth to a mural
I’ve worked on art projects in the past that have included digitally printed prints cut from and laid over another substrate or hidden image. Those were cool, but I must say, the concept outlined over at LimitedHype.com from burojet.com is really something.
They’ve used digitally printed murals of unique furniture, but have not been scared to cut them to pieces, and overlay them onto moveable doors.
Obviously these are tailored for those with small living spaces, but the concept in relation to division and revelation of new layers is exciting.
At Lateral Art, we’ve had the opportunity to work with custom cutting houses that cut Aluminum Letters, Sintra, and of course digitally printed items out for us.
What about two layers of murals, one cut to pieces with an intricate pattern, revealing the other behind, but 6 to 12 inches away. As the visitor walks from one viewpoint to the next, the back/revealed image keeps changing. Kind of like a massive lenticular.
We’re up to that challenge, we only need that target wall. Do you have a good application?
You will impress your client if you can speak their language - speak about expectations for the target wall before the mural is installed. To speak intelligently about this concept, refer to the guidelines that I have referenced below.
