Writing Graffiti

HALO - light-writing graffiti

French designer aissa logerot has developed ‘halo’ an LED light spray. instead of
spraying paint it has an LED that sprays light. not only can the LED’s brightness
be altered, but the colors are interchangeable. if the light doesn’t have enough battery,
users simply have to shake it to have energy again.

Bristol Street Artist: City Tour

ST PAULS, STENCIL

This piece, by French stencil artist Goin, one of the many artists appearing at Upfest, was spotted near City Road.

Apparently this piece was amended the day after it was painted from Go To Hell to Go To Hull.

BEDMINSTER, STENCIL

PHOTO BY JUSTIN STAPLE  |  ARTWORK BY ALIAS

One of a few street art pieces that escaped the confines of the Upfest (concentration) camp. Seems easier to appreciate such a piece, good or bad, with some space around it.

STOKES CROFT, STENCIL

This new stencil piece is by the Bristol artist Levi C, it can be found in Stokes Croft. You can just see Banksy's 'Mild Mild West' in the background.

BRISTOL CENTRE, STENCIL

PHOTO BY JUSTIN STAPLE  |  ARTWORK BY FAKE

This piece is a follow-up to another stencil piece that Fake painted around Bristol a while back. The two pieces work like a before and after, almost like a two frame cartoon strip.

ARTWORK BY COPYRIGHT

This lovely stencil piece by Copyright can be found along the Cumberland Road cycle path, close to the Create Centre.

This stencil by French street artist C215 appeared just outside the 2008 group show, 'Not A Penny Off The Pay', that he was part of in Bristol.

Beautiful Nick Walker piece in a doorway right next to the Clifton Triangle.

Michael Aaron Williams

The artist Michael Aaron Williams was raised in Knoxville, TN, but you can see his street art all over the world. He’s big on God but that doesn’t come through in the work, except for the fact that he doesn’t deface anything in his pursuit to give away his (sometimes) photo realistic graffiti. In fact he tapes it to the wall so anyone anywhere lucky enough to find a piece can take it home and enjoy it. A thoroughly nice guy by the sounds of it.

What I really like about his street art is the fact that many pieces are designed to suit the setting to perfection. In some works people are drawn/painted to scale and at first appearance look very much like an everyday event on the street. The running theme seems to be poverty with plenty of homeless guys and street urchins abound.
