Welcome A Refugee Introduction Portrait Constructions Graffito & Surface 1994 Degree Celcius Displaced Anamorphic & Cycloramic Orientation Plans About

The surface on which images are

created range in art history and

archeology from stone to now

telematic screens. A current

trend in art history can

represent quite accurately where

in the fields of science and

technology the world stands.

Here, I am interested in

specifically graffito utilizing

public space; public surface on

which to exhibit images or just

color. The following are

reinterpretations of urban art

exposed onto 5x4 c-41 film and

then scanned into the computer

and color corrected in order to

create positive images. With the

use of spray pigment, the

'taggers' increase the gap

between any viewer and the

primary surface whether it be, in

these particular examples, board,

cement or brick. These images

were located on the east end of

the city and the last,

specifically Petticoat Lane.
