harrisburg & eastwood I

I promised you I would post pictures of graffiti in Houston and the artistic value of them. Well there is this place on Harrisburg and Eastwood that has some of MY favorite graffiti. It is on the eastside of town and by my job.

Well what makes it so great? Well the people who do the graffiti here change it on a monthly basis for the neighborhood. It takes them about 2-3 days to complete, and the whole neighborhood comes out to watch them express themselves artistically. It is amazing because the quality of the work is wonderful and it brings a neighborhood together.

Who would think that an illegal activity would bring people together? I love it!!!

So what I am going to do is post up pics every time they change it. ENJOY

the reverse graffiti project

Instead of spray painting streets walls, there are artists who clean dirt off of them as a new form of graffiti. In the photo above, you can see Brazilian artist Alexandre Orion unsoiling parts of a transport tunnel to draw skulls on it.

SOOOO COOL!
