A UK grafitti artist has taken his work to a stunning new level with a pioneering street art project in Brazil.

INSA has created a new artform which he has dubbed “GIF-iti” - a technique similar to stop-motion animation but on a much grander scale - which involves painting a gigantic mural, photographing it, altering it then photographing again until it can be made into a loopable clip, or GIF (Graphic Interchange Format).

In June 2014 INSA and collaborator MADSTEEZ, created what they then considered to be the world’s largest example of "GIF-iti" on an apartment building in Taipei, Taiwan.
