Core: Image


“Imagine a city where graffiti wasn't illegal, a city where everybody could draw whatever they liked. Where every street was awash with a million colours and little phrases. Where standing at a bus stop was never boring. A city that felt like a party where everyone was invited, not just the estate agents and barons of big business. Imagine a city like that and stop leaning against the wall - it's wet.”

Banksy, is my favourite stencil artist and the reason for this is because he comes up with wack stencils. Banksy's mature woks are characterized by a playfully antiestablishment, anticonsumerist message, and often interact with existing architectural features, street furniture, and other graffiti. Another thing i like about this artist is that he has his unique way of graffiti, everyone knows if the work belongs to banksy or not. What i love the most is the message he is saying within these pieces of art works he does, some can be hilarious but they are also true.
