The street of New York is the most massive art gallery in the world. We pass by expression scribbled, slopped, pasted, stuck, nailed and screwed upon street sign poles, construction sites, walls, sidewalks- you name it someone has altered it.
A few pictures from my recent documentation:
What is it??? Is what I asked when I walked by, it looks like a play on graffiti- but it’s pasted up there- I think it’s meant to confuse us, if you walk by you may not even notice it- but it got me scratching my head.

This was nailed into a street sign pole. It says on it, “that’s the girl im gonna marry”

This is more collaborative scribble then anything, but creates a depth and surface that I and many city dwellers have come to love. Names upon names, it just looks fly.

My own little stamp on the streets- peep the miz metro card sticker on the corner of the sign : )

This is nailed into the side of a construction site wall. IT’S PRETTY DAMN IMPRESSIVE.
The entire thing is carved out of wood. I can only imagine how much time it took- and the artist, Judith Supine is giving it to the public to enjoy, talk about being one with the streets. New York is so dark sometimes, it’s artists like this that help us get through the day.

And last but not least, the ass that has been terrorizing the lower east side. Not exactly “street art” but it’s on the street, and I’m sure plenty of guys would argue it’s art, as they ponder the possibility of jerking off while waiting for the light to change, “would anyone notice?” YES

that’s all for now.
