i still maintain there was for a while something new and interesting in london about graffiti that was so undistortedly figurative: actually there's a kind of hauntology to it lol, this ever-so-slightly impressionist black-and-white photorealism that reminds you of the illustrations in ladybird books or look and learn, a bygone style redolent of a vanished political dream project -- there alongside the scribbles of tagging and jazzily high-colour stylised cartoon murals and of course half-torn-down billboards in semi-rundown city areas on the sides of yet-to-be developed properties. it wasn't deep especially, but it was a nice surprise -- a tiny little free oasis of cultural joy at the time. but the context and the serendipity were fun
a bit like the project someone undertook for a while of painting potatoes various colours and sticking cocktail sticks in them so they wouldn't roll off, and throwing them up onto the roofs of bus-stops. that was nice too, because you only saw them as you were gazing round idly on the top floor of a bus and it was like a weird little present just for you
but he got bored and hence boring years back -- like a lot of batch craftspeople never found a way out of his first hit run, really
