Disused Church Transformed Into Skate Park With Incredible Psychedelic G...
Published on Dec 16, 2015
a
historic church in the spanish municipality of llanera, asturias is no
ordinary place for parishioners. instead, the site has been made into a
place of pilgrimage for athletes after its conversion into an indoor
skate park. at the start of december 2015, artist okuda san miguel began
work on a monumental, colorful mural which now canvasses la iglesia
skate’s vaulted ceilings, and window-lined walls. a vibrant display of
faceted faces, geometric skulls and psychedelic wildlife encompasses the
space overhead, wrapping all interior surfaces in a mesmerizing
artwork. created in collaboration with red bull, ‘kaos temple’ forms a
sanctuary for both skateboarders and art lovers alike.
