Sten and Lex, two anonymous italian street artists



I just found this clip on web and thought I should definitely share it with you guys. Remember post you about the street art event OUTDOOR held in Garbatella? If somebody of you missed it you can read the post and see the pictures here. Great event. These four minutes are specifically dedicated to a couple of artists, Sten and Lex, who performed their work during that event. They talk shortly about how they started and which tecniques they use, what inspires them and what they think about Rome as a city. Besides being considered as the "pioners" of stencil art in Rome, they are famous all around the world thanks for their signature style called the "hole school" which consists in the use of pixels, small spots and lines in the creating of the stencils. This is the picture I took of the building in Garbatella, during the OUTDOOR.
