“The Wicked’s Heart Knows No Sorrow…”

I love graffiti…it is like a language from the hidden gods, the ghost civilization that lives in a parallel universe…of our own creation…oops started to ramble…or was it the scotch and soda and pixels…
Another in the series of 6 shots before a green screen. Graffiti background courtesy of a local pizzeria…blended in PS

Behind the shops on 19th Avenue between Osborn Rd and Mulberry Dr, there are several walls dedicated to graffiti art murals. I’ve always thought this was a good thing. Give people a space to be creative. Mind you, I think graffiti art and graffiti — otherwise knows as “tagging” — are two different things. The former is art, and enhances walls that are otherwise barren and boring; the latter mars walls that belong to people who would rather keep them bare, and consists of nothing more than initials that take little artistry to apply. I, personally, am happy to see this creative outlet in my neighborhood, and I wish the kids who paint initials on walls would stop doing that and join in painting art on walls like these instead.
The business owners whose rear walls are painted have all agreed to allow the graffiti artists to paint here, and the paints are donated by Montana Spanish Paints.

Graffiti meets Thalys
Four well-known and famous European writers – Seak One (Cologne), Sozy One (Brussels), JonOne 156 (Paris) and Zedz (Amsterdam) – had to paint a train as fast as Thalys will soon take to get from Paris to Cologne or Amsterdam, 3 hours and 15 minutes.

These images were created for a project where i had to scan objects and then edit them in photoshop. These images had to do with consumerism, sneaker & t shirt culture, urban style and how these objects are monumentalized. The edits had to do with a deconstruction of these highly constructed monuments.

Vertigo

The increasing birth rate in the early 1900s demanded more children hospitals. The ‘Säuglings- und Kinderklinik Berlin Weißensee’ was built 1909 according to the planning of architect Carl James Bühring. Itwas known as one of the best hospitals and used as a training centre too.
More buildings were erected from 1911 until 1987. For ensuring the milk support they even built a cow farm and a dairy. Maybe not one of the best ideas, 9 years later the cow farm and the milk facility were closed.
The hospital has been closed by the end of 1996 and was sold to a group of investors in 2006.
Since over 12 years its left alone. Can you hear the echo of a crying or laughing baby from time to time? Can you see concerned parents waiting on the floor or sitting by the bed of their child? Or is it just an abandoned building?

Pagasa – S3isPagasa

Pagasa – a filipino word that means hope. I added a texture over an old shot I took last year to convey how I feel about the Philippines – which is one of a distressed view yet still retains a glimmer of hope that things will get better.

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Putting the Pieces Together: The Graffiti Model for Indie Filmmaking
Want to see what do-it-yourself filmmaking is all about? Benjamin Morgan did, so he made the low-budget, scraped together film Quality of Life. Shot on location in San Francisco’s Mission District, the movie sheds light on a clandestine graffiti subculture, telling an authentic and gripping story of two young graffiti writers whose friendship and lives unravel after they get arrested. Morgan’s book delves into how he and his crew were able to build their movie out of nothing, get it screened to
