This illusionistic shadowbox was commissioned by Buckingham Companies for its CityWay II development. Highlighting butterflies native to Indiana, the mural’s detail is as astonishing as its scale.
French by birth, Mantra (Youri Cansell) is an international street/graffiti artist who began painting in 2008. His work frequently features insects, animals, and birds in tribute to the natural surroundings that he grew up with, and is characterized by hyper-realistic detail and deep color. His nickname comes from the repetition of his style, which he and others see as a spiritual connection to the unique universe he has created. Mantra also works under the names Youri Mantra and Mantra Voz.
