Zonenkinder2

Combining street art, pop surrealism and character design, Zonenkinder Collective have collaberated with Danny Gretscher for a show called Erinnerung an den Traum in Germany. Carolin and Philip of Zonenkinder state. “One main part of our work is to create art in the streets and nature and to work with the environment which surrounds us and inspires us to be creative. In fact, sometimes we do not really know what kind of art we create. Often we just discover places which scream for color and revival, or we suddenly see diffuse parts, faces, animals in a fresh painted wall or a tree and let it flow.”
