This painted utility box is part of the
Koreatown Northgate neighborhood improvement project.
This particular box, Linescaping, was done by artist Momoku Sudo . All four sides of the box are done with the artist's unique style. The design is an optical illusion that makes it not only look 3 dimensional, but also looks as if it's moving when you look at it. All lines are painted one by one freehand.
Unfortunately, this box has signs of tagging.
