MOMO SHOW PALACE

Re+Public published two new videos demonstrating recent work with their Augmented Reality app at the Wynwood Walls in Miami, and the Bowery/Houston wall in NY.

What they’re doing here hints at wild possibilities.  I was able to work with them in Miami, and wish we had months not weeks to try everything out and play with it. Thinking about how this works is like witnessing a new “internet” open up where nothing existed.  The motivation for Re+Public is to crash this emerging understanding of a new public space with art and creative open ended purposes, before commercial and legal interests clog the discourse.  You can read more from Public Ad Campaign, one of two collaborators behind Re+Public, the other being The Heavy Projects.

There’s five functioning murals in the Wynwood compound, mine is inside their Nicelook Gallery.

See their second video at Bowery Houston here.

Thanks to Sean Mahan of L7 for assisting, the Walls team for all their support, the Goldman family and extended family for making this possible. I had a very nice time.  Meeting enormous artists that have been inspirational for a long while, in a swimming pool/South Beach atmosphere, was cool too.

We pushed this RV out of the way with a scissor lift. Haha

I recently spent 10 incredible days with legendary humans Kelly and Sean, surfing, ghost-riding bikes, watching Sean free dive a 70 foot natural spring, and hearing Kelly lecture on education and gardening. Before I left, we dropped this mural on the front of their home.

You may remember Sean from such soundtracks as “Travelouge” (2010) and recall his fine art.

444 Jefferson Ave in Bushwick.

I’m not sure, but I think just one set of black lines would have played better.  Oh well, I was curious to see them crossing.

Four story wall (counting the attic), accessible only by ladder, between power and phone lines, on uneven ground.

Painting like this is not a good idea, but the mural worked out to be just what I’ve wanted to see/say for a while now.

I even liked it at the two tone stage.

Notice the lumber scraps used to level the ladder, yikes!  I’m glad I didn’t die.

This mural was something extra for Bien Urbain.  The real project is a collaboration with Eltono.  We’ll have documentation soon…

France is cool.

To Puglia from Rome ->  I want to make all experimental works… & of course Angelo is down.
