We have a few spots around here where the artists actually get together & paint (parking garages, underpasses...). "Upper Playground" has a You Tube video series called Walrus TV that often features current & past artists. There are a couple that I found really interesting, where graffiti artists help out some of the homeless people in their area (LA, if I recall correctly). The videos really show the human side of both the homeless & the artists, worth checking out.<br />Anyway, it looks like a fun photo walk & a little glimpse of the area! I like the portrait. It's enigmatic, you're not really sure what's going on behind the eyes.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03040149132251029332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5629119310522875507.post-12314142185876613162010-03-14T17:57:25.735-06:002010-03-14T17:57:25.735-06:00Hey Marc - I had no idea you could see those tags ...Hey Marc - I had no idea you could see those tags from the Remand Center. That's actually really cool when you think about it (other than the fact that the messages are for folks who are accused of often serious crimes). And I'm pretty sure you don't know Jiorji. She's a flickr buddy of mine. But do check out her blog and flickr stream. She's a toy camera enthusiast like myself.iHeartDimSumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02443318673221902687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5629119310522875507.post-14283686122586756502010-03-14T16:34:59.371-06:002010-03-14T16:34:59.371-06:00That impulse-portrait shot is priceless. The "...That impulse-portrait shot is priceless. The "morning child" one worked out pretty cool, too. (Did you know those tags around there are specifically put so that people in the "Edmonton Remand Center" can look out the windows and see them? In the summer you'll always see notes, tags, love notes, etc. on the sidewalks and such so that inmates can look down and read them.)<br /><br />Also, do I know jiorji?mchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15826376114437481272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5629119310522875507.post-9327208522776656442010-03-13T11:35:45.494-07:002010-03-13T11:35:45.494-07:00I dunno, I haven't been paying much attention ...I dunno, I haven't been paying much attention to graffiti/street art/ tags/ murals lately/recently.
