This is getting silly. I am, after all, allegedly, a grown man. Five days before I head off to Glastonbury though I am sitting here wishing the days away like a kid waiting for Father Christmas. It’s surely not healthy? Maybe coming home from the pub and putting the DVD on wasn’t a great idea in my condition, but hey, I thought it may make the time pass a little quicker…
There’s something inherently wonderful about a well made piece of graffitti. The anarchistic beauty of the form has the ability to enthuse and anger in equal measure, and to an extent that no other artform can hope to match. There is a wonderful piece which has just popped up outside the Mushroom Works gallery and studios in Newcastle Upon Tyne, England, which ticks all the boxes, and is a little bit of a gem in one of the ugliest parts of the city.
Drop me a line if you see any good examples, and I’ll get them featured.
