    Insane51 started his streetart career in 2006 in Athens. Inspired by huge murals in the city he finalized his first own mural in 2007. At this point he was focused on portrayals and experimental techniques with forms and colors. Afterwards he started specializing himself in photorealism and overlay-murals what is his very own handwriting know. The name is program. The insane aspect of his artworks is the ability to place two murals on the same surface. What is you cannot see with the human eye appears if you look through a 3D glasses. This technique is only possible because of the domination of photorealism and the control of the colors. He has traveled and painted in many European cities and the Middle East. He is part of a Guiness world record for the Biggest Glow in the Dark Graffiti Scroll done in 2016 at Ras Al Khaimah, UAE and also part of the biggest tattoo studio and collective ‘Sake Tattoo Crew’ in Athens, Greece , participating in live paintings and murals.

      This mural depicts a portrait of John Travolta, in which he can be seen as the gangster Vincent Vega in the famous film Pulp Fiction (1994) by director Quentin Tarantino. The painting was made by Insane51 in 2017 on behalf of the Rotterdam Street Art Museum, a collective with the aim of realizing more street art on the West-Kruiskade and the 1e Middellandstraat. The painting was made in a special way, it looks like it is 3D.

        Insane 51 is the stage name of a young Greek artist who prefers to remain anonymous.

        With the artwork on the wall in Josephstraat it is immediately clear who the person in the mural is. It's John Travolta in the role of Vincent Vega from the movie Pulp Fiction. But why do you see everything twice?

        Could it have something to do with Vincent Vega's drug use in the film?

        Nothing is less true.

        His work is mainly characterized by superimposing different layers of images. You can see a nice example of this in the Rotterdam Street Art Museum.

        Might be a little confusing at first glance. Until you put green/red 3D glasses from the cinema on your nose. Then suddenly the flat mural turns into an amazing 3D street art work of art.

        So remember to put your 3D glasses in your jacket pocket before you leave home. Then the mural becomes truly insane.

        This technique is only possible through enormous skill and control over the use of color.

        It will therefore come as no surprise that Insane 51 has already produced many street art projects in Europe and the Middle East.

        Insane 51 and Wild Drawing were the first street art artists to create a mural for the Rotterdam Street Art Museum in 2017.
