Stopping and Starting Animation

I was recently introduced to the animated street art work Muto, by graffiti artist Blu. I couldn't help but notice the similarity to the works by the South African artist, Robin Rhode. We ran across Rhode's photos in a private collection in Miami last year and were taken by them. Often in a series, they appear to be individual cells of an animation, partially drawn on urban walls and other surfaces. It is as if Muto added the animation to Rhode's images.
