Anders Gjennestad is a Norwegian stencil artist who exhibits in galleries, on street walls he goes by the alias STRØK. Using his own photographs as a point of departure, his hand cut multi-layered stencils create photorealistic imagery, with depth and detail that is complex, tactile and mentally engaging. The placement and choice of material painted on depicts the nature of the subject and enables the work to interact with the space.
