Zinzin, please record and post your next graffiti/street art explanation — I think it would make an excellent Platonic dialogue. (Seriously.)

but he then required a LONG (and hopefully unbiased) explanation of graffiti, street art, etc.

he helps me paint over tags on the block, so he was surprised about a sample that his dad doesn’t regard as “a fucking pain in the ass”.

we’re now doing a series of such paste-ups all over the garage door (which is in the back of the house)…so far, he designed a line of skunks smoking cigars & wearing top hats.

ironic? maybe.
