PART 1
=======
Took the back streets and discovered some of the
latest, greatest, and oldest examples of street art, graffiti and mural art.
Our guide, a street artist/expert on the scene, showed us some of the best:
- stencil art
- throw ups
- mural art
- tagging
- ad busting
- heaven spots
- burners; and
- installations
while teaching us who was who and their motivations behind their artwork.
PART 2
=======
We then visited their workshop in a former abandoned margarine factory in Lictenberg we were instructed how to stencil and spray paint.
Yes, we took our piece home as well.
So much fun.
