Hocus Pocus Scream

I can’t find the exact name of this graffiti or the artist(s) responsible for it. The style of the caricature reminds me of 1980s anime, and seems to play on surreal humor on the classic box cutting magic trick. The idea of the magician’s boxes plays off nicely on the grid surface of the shophouse shutters. This graffiti seems particularly popular with tourists, despite the clutter surrounding it. Despite its popularity, I wasn’t able to get a ping of its name or creator from the internet, unlike the other graffiti I took along Armenian Street.

P.S. Quite oddly, I found the screaming girl resembling a friend of mine.
