Street Art: Frederike Fredda Wouters paints an Actros at the Victoria Falls
RoadStars meets Street Art
An Actros conquers the jungle: Frederike Wouters is inspired by Africa's impressive nature.
A question of perspective: the artists draw their motifs on the ground such that they are distorted. The amazing 3D effect only becomes apparent from a particular angle.

The task:
The Victoria Falls in the Republic of Zambia are one of the natural wonders of Africa. Here, the water masses of the Zambezi river pour down across 1708 metres into a gorge that is 110 metres deep with steep basalt walls and which runs at right angles to the flow of the river. Not far from the falls a well-tried Actros works its way through muddy tracks with its cargo. 31 year-old artist Frederike Fredda Wouters recreated this scene.

"I started street art at the age of 14. I learn a lot from my
own mistakes and through the contact with other artists. We swap ideas
and techniques and develop further together. Animals and nature are my
favourite topics."

Schön wenn man eine solche Kunst beherrscht und ein "normales" Bild in diese Übergröße u. Perspektive umsetzten kann 👍
