Precise Stencils of People in Vulnerable Poses by Jana & JS

Until March 19, my favorite art gallery, Thinkspace in Culver City, is showing works of internationally acclaimed contemporary artist duos. One of these is Austria-based Jana & JS who creates incredibly precise stencils of people in various poses. Their pieces are inspired by their personal photographic work. You can find these stencils outdoors in major European urban centers but here they’ve presented a body of work made of acrylic, spray paint and stencil on wood assemblages. I love how you can feel the vulnerability in each pose.
