Series following street artist Julian Beever, as he travels the world creating incredible chalk drawings which, when complete, create stunning optical illusions.
Think of street art and you may think of Parisian chalk painters and rebel graffiti artists, but Julian Beever is a street artist like no other.
He creates trompe-l'oeil chalk drawings which, when complete, create stunning optical illusions filled with depth, life and colour. He creates a projection in his works which is called anamorphosis, which produces a very realistic 3-D effect when viewed at a certain angle.
Sky Arts follows him on his artistic mission around the world as he tries to find the best pavements, sidewalks and walls for his visually stunning art. The first city to witness Beevers wondrous art is London. Follow him as he quite literally scours the streets and pavements for the ideal location to create a chalk scene of Big Ben inspired by the film Safety Last!
