Meet Herakut
Since 2004 the German street art duo Hera (Jasmin Siddiqui) and Akut (Falk Lehmann ) has been creating magical murals around the world.
Their street art is mostly about storytelling and the creation of imaginary worlds. Hera sets the characters’ form and proportions, whilst Akut paints the photorealistic elements.
On their website they share: “[…]Herakut’s paintings are sensuous, savage, and always remarkable for their powerful dualism. Akut’s photorealistic details play out against Hera’s expressive, more gestural, line-work in canvases that seem poised to articulate stories of triumph and hardship. Humor and text are weaved their way into the work effortlessly.”
