Activist STREET ART & Graffiti
^ some of those are great, but most of them are downers when it comes to content/concept.
I prefer something positive. How much good can come from something that makes you sad? Way too easy to make downer art all day, but what is that creating in the bigger picture? The 2 at the top at least have some humor, something to attach a smile to the message. The last one is visually very clever but good god what does it leave in your mind/soul? A hopeless wave of uselessness! Is is what you want to instill in people with your art?
I think paying attention to this difference is important.

^ one day I would like to understand that graffiti language I see in Brasil.
They look like viking runes or something, I don't understand it. Totally different tagging culture, I thought it would be cool to make a documentary where you take a Canadian graf artist and a Brasilian graf artist and switch places for a week & document each experience.
