Hidden from view. Parispea, Estonia. My entry for CCC’s Street Art competition #48

in StreetArt3 years ago

When your busy climbing through windows, to find artwork is an added bonus. When you do find it, stand back and stare. I quite often find myself giving it a round of applause!

This was a small building I was in, an obvious meeting point to chill, here are the best bits.

Off piste artwork in my favourite, my reasoning?

Simple

A) it is artwork in the raw
B) it’s not done for the eager eye of the tourist, nor is it a corporate, municipal sponsored project.
C) the artist isn’t doing it for anyone else’s pleasure other than his own, and adventurers who venture into dark places

I mean, come on, you won’t see anarchist “fuck the pigs” Beauty like this on the high street!

Old and faded, plastered walls crumbling, the art slowly decaying, nothing lasts forever. My previous upload “words” was also snapped here.

Sort:  

This is a fun one. I like big pieces on abandoned walls more too.

Cheers,thanks for visiting
Yes love them myself too

Some of this stuff is very good, but few will see it if tucked away. Then you have people spraying their 'tag' everywhere for pure ego boost that I often see from the train. I don't know anyone in that culture, but I expect there are rivalries and different attitudes to working with authorities.

!PIZZA

Yes I agree, taggers are I think just envious of others talent, something they obviously lack themselves.

We call em' scribbles here (tags). Sometimes those are just as well down as large pieces but often theyre just scribbled ass scribbles. Regions tend to have their own styles as well. Lady K is a dope writter who has a slick scribble, I forget where she is from.

@grindle! I sent you a slice of $PIZZA on behalf of @steevc.

A good writer will be able to write up a scribble quickly but also make it look good. Like a street calligrapher.
