Johan Karlgren, The Astonishing Pixel Vandal!

Rainy weather, summer heat, or February snow storms would be a lot more enjoyable if Johan Karlgren aka Pappas Pärlor‘s creations were actually out there on the streets. Sorry, you don’t know what I’m talking about, do you? This genius digital artist from Sweden is famous for creating interactive street art, which should immediately brighten up anyone’s day. He takes inspiration from movies, cartoons, TV shows, and retro video games, and you can clearly tell that he loves what he’s doing.

 

Till this day I’m not 100% sure if those pixelated characters are real cut-outs, or he’s just been altering the photos. That’s how amazing his skills are. Enough chit-chat, let’s finally see some of Johan’s Pixel Art!
