Some jaw-dropping work by artist Fanakapan, whose chrome balloon paintings have become something of a trademark. Of all the work I’ve seen, the image below is my favourite. The balloons, the strings, all that is painted, and if you look closely, the exit sign is reflected in the balloons. Next level stuff.
