ACTIVITY//Street Art ...Above

Above // a street artist 

'A New York based graphic artist collective recently teamed with Above to create this film of his South Central tour in 2007-2008, making their way from Rio De Janiero to Mexico City.'

'You may not get arrested painting illegally in broad daylight but you sure do get interrupted by curious people passing by," states street artist Above on his website.'

When questioned about his use of arrows as 'urban decoration' he responded with this...

'I’m not sure if people like them as much as they seem to evoke a lot of curiosity and imagination as to how they got up there and what they mean. I like that aspect of the arrows: they’re vague. Each reaction holds its own true validity.'

Well, his work definitely provokes a sense of curiosity through his witty comments and imagery ...it's street art which will either give people a little giggle or make them stop and think!
