I saw a portion of this awhile ago. Absolutely incredible. There’s graffiti, and then there’s art.
In Surrey it seems nothing is sacred (even a brand new, gorgeous wooden fence wasn’t spared by taggers), but I never see the works of art I’m familiar with in Vancouver (various alleys, and under the Granville St Bridge near Granville Island, for example). Out here it’s just vandalism… I don’t think they have anywhere proper to make art if those folks are one and the same.
