Giant Lego Bridge in Germany | Photos – Motley News & Politics

Incredible work! Very realistic bridge appears as though it was constructed with giant Lego pieces.

Over the course of 4 weeks, German street artist, Martin Heuwold, aka Megx, used colored panels to transform this bridge by using colorful panels that give people the illusion of seeing real Lego bricks. The bridge is part of debunk train line that was converted in to bicycle and pedestrian path located in Wuppertal, Germany.

According to his site, the artist lives and works with his family in Wuppertal. After getting in trouble for graffiti, Matthew Heuwold decided to make his artwork accessible to the general public

Very creative. I wonder if it will discourage graffiti …

  Hope so. Although it didn’t look like there was much graffiti on it before he turned it into a Lego bridge…
