Urban Art Promotion in Using Giant Clipper in Chaudfontaine Park, Belgium by Mehmet Ali Uysal

How do you exactly promote something which isn’t a product as in term of a real life thing that you can hold and feel, like food or drinks or clothing, but only your eyes can enjoy? Well the best idea is go crazy beyond your imagination. Promotion craze is needed just like the display of contemporary urban art in this giant wooden clip which is being shown in Belgium at the Chaudfontaine park.

The great unusual design came from Mehmet Ali Uysal where the unusual park addition is replicated with the clip, a common simple tool daily used to clip our clothes when drying them out in the sun. Because of the huge and really out of the ordinary surrounding things the giant clipper automatically becomes the focal point. It’s as if that the urban art here really want to say that it should be given more encouragement. So if you’re into urban art then our suggestion is go wilder than this and take that creative idea beyond the limit.
