Popular Zagreb street artists Lonac and Chez186 collaborated on an impressive piece of artwork for the Ohoho Festival at AKC Media in Zagreb.
While Zagreb is no stranger to some of the best street art in the world, it’s always recognizable when a new piece finds its canvas on the walls you least expect, but always hoped art would find.

AKC Media is known in Zagreb to host a variety of music and exhibition programs, but more so the space gathers many young artists, driving them to to create.
On the back side of the AKC Media building in Zagreb, on the back building wall in the yard, passersby will notice a new mural that was recently painted by popular Zagreb street artists Lonac and Chez186. The new painting, entitled “Technicolor Dream”, is the cooperation of these two Croatian street artists, connecting the figuration, abstraction, realism, and colorism that both artists contribute.

"Technicolor Dream” shows a small boy while sleeping. The boy is painted in blue while the bedding is rich and colorful.
Zagreb continues to grow as an epicenter for art, with the recent “Bijela Noć” art all-nighter held earlier this month, as well as many new exhibitions and continuous recognition for Zagreb street artists.
