ReplyDeleteBanskys work for me depicts the freedom that art gives us. It opens the door to breaking down barriers that society puts in place. This sadly limits artist from exploring the boundaries in which they can break and further extend their own knowledge of their capabilities that we can be found not only through graffiti art and murals but also other mediums as well.
ReplyDeleteBanskys work interacts with surroundings, making it believable that they actually exists or is supposed to be there. This is very interesting technique to use because it involves public structures and those who are able to view it as well it gives that sense of involvement and then graffiti is some what not thought of .
