Agape Charmani for Art-Sheep

Influenced by classic paintings and drawing, Miami-based Axel Void, creates intense images, commenting on important social issues. Whether he is applying thick brushstrokes on canvas or he is painting large-scale murals, Void treats his materials and subjects with a delicacy and attention to detail.

Focusing on dark, mysterious topics like sickness and death, the artist creates his paintings with a desire to explore the bizarre, as it is captured in his memories. For his murals the artist travels the world, making different works, inspired by a city’s history, culture and social state. Void opens a dialogue about how art it is interpreted by the passersby who often meet works that remind them of famous incidents, common issues or even their food culture.

We’ve gathered a collection with some of him most powerful street-art works, often done in collaboration with other artists.
