Scratching the Surface by Vhils

Scratching the Surface by Vhils is a unique relief in the heart of Bangkok, created by a Portuguese artist known for his innovative 'destructive' technique.

The work is a fascinating example of contemporary street art, where instead of adding material, the artist removes layers of the wall to create three-dimensional portraits.

Each detail has been precisely carved into the surface of the building, creating an amazing contrast between old and new, between destruction and creation. It is not only a sculpture, but also a social commentary embedded in the urban fabric of Bangkok.
