Have you seen “stikman” lately?
From the streets of Boston to Hollywood people started to spot a robot figure that further got the name stikman. The figures are placed all over the states and are made out of corrugated plastic, vinyl records, burlap sacks or scraps of wood, metal or cloth. You can find the stikman on building walls, newspaper boxes and traffic signs, but he is most often seen in crosswalks as a sticker pasted to the pavement. Some people are finding him interesting, others think he is creepy, but no one knows who the creator is. Some has tried to contact him through his email but he has always refused to give his real name, he will tell you to just call him Bob.
It has been told that he is soft-spoken and thoughtful and that his goal with the misterious stikman is not to provoke, but simply to make people pause and wonder. More amazing street art can be found in Brazil.
