I made 5 boxes that contained dollar-store disposable cameras and marked them with “Take a Photo, Leave a Photo.” After retrieving the cameras (there were 3 still remaining), I developed the film and then framed and mounted the resulting photographs in the same spots!
Street Artist Posterchild has been adding his “Seating Caps” to pipes around Chinatown in Toronto. He explains:
These pipes- as pokey, uncomfortable, and rough as they are- have long ago been reimagined as benches, repurposed as public seating on a street that has none.
This month, he’s started putting up Mario blocks that are already punched out, and have a “fire power” flower popping out of them. Guerilla Gardening meets street art!
Canadian street artist Posterchild was in New York earlier this month for a special mission. With the help of Jason Eppink and Steve Lambert he installed four pixelator style boxes to give New York Subway advertisement screens an awesome stained glass look.
