Street Art…

@neph93 i re-watched the trailer just now and realized that it captures people that have passed away. sobering to watch, but its good to have their art/opinions/stories memorialized.

This is awesome. I’m def adding it to my list @Inorganic

@Matt right on! let me know what you think if you end up watching it (disclaimer: we were in our early 20's when we made it and it was the first film any of us made, so its definitely rough around the edges - which i think is true to genre - enjoy!)

There’s a a Banksy inspired artist in my town who does lovely stuff, but while horrible sharpie tagging often gets left, his work tends to get covered up. Go figure. One reason may be that he seems to use less weather resilient materials so it fades quickly. Another may be that the content may be unsettling for some of the bourgeoisie. Either way I’ll try to find some.
He had a great piece in a dirty back alley that functions as a little used entrance to the the mall in the centre of town. It was called The Outsider and was a comment on how young kids mix with experienced drug users and other “untouchables” in the mall. The alley stinks of piss and vomit but has a huge variety of street art in a very small place. It’s a pretty interesting sociological capsule. Her are some snaps of what is there now…
