Shipping Containers in Belgium Turned Into Canvas

Rock Werchter music festival held in Belgium is hosting street artists to use group of staked shipping containers into canvas. Among artists are: ROA , Defo, Jen Zie, Martin Ron, and Pichi & Avo 

The end result is pretty amazing, I’m sure that in real life its even powerful.

Here are some of the works description:

1. Street artist ROA painted a series of animal murals in cages including  a giraffe, goat, bear, and even a parrot on the containers.
