Artist Creates Giant Anatomical Murals With Dissected Humans, Animals, and Cartoons, Turning City Walls Into Open‑air Anatomy Lessons

Nychos (previously featured) is an Austrian‑born, Los Angeles–based street artist, illustrator, and muralist known for huge, hyper‑detailed paintings that “dissect” humans, animals, and pop‑culture characters to reveal their skeletons, muscles, and organs in exploding cross‑sections.

Growing up in a hunting family in Styria, he became fascinated with anatomy early on and turned that experience into a distinctive visual language of x‑ray, translucent, and cut‑away bodies painted at massive scale on walls around the world. Founder of the Rabbit Eye Movement project and co‑founder of THE WEIRD crew, he works across murals, canvases, sculpture and 3D, often mixing heavy‑metal energy, comics, and graffiti with meditations on mortality, inner structure, and the “layers” of consciousness.
