"wishing you well" - love williamsburg
Often work on this kind of paper gets taken down pretty quickly, as it's heavy and relatively easy to keep in one piece. I've seen people in Berlin doing it & I was once asked to help take down a piece as I walked by some girl that wanted it in her living room. Naturally I helped, but she didn't know I was the one responsible for putting it there in the first place. So, let's hope that if this piece is already gone, as I've been led to believe, it's gone to a good cause. :)
Love & Peace in Williamsburg, Brooklyn
Many thanks to http://www.flickr.com/photos/eniat/ for uploading some pictures of my work. That evening began after a full day running around Manhattan, far too many drinks in Prospect Park, and a grueling 2 hour train ride in the intense heat of NY's metro system just to go from one point in Brooklyn to another. When the sun began to rise I didn't have the strength to hang around any longer just for daylight photos. One of these days I'll find another photographer to follow me around and document some of these happenings. Until that time, many thanks to those that do grab images of my work for me, without which I would often have no records for myself beyond what memory will keep.

TOSAT : Public Ad Campaign
The Great People at TOSAT have done a wonderful thing on the streets of Toronto. This is taken directly from their website: http://www.publicadcampaign.com/tosat/
TOSAT (Toronto Street Advertising Takeover) is the first international street ad takeover project. Working in Toronto with the Pattison Outdoor Core Media Pillars, the event included 60 artists from around the world and removed over 90 street levels ads as well as nearly 20 billboards from Toronto's public environment. While we would like to thank all of the artists who submitted work, without which this project could not have happened, we owe an incredible debt to local Toronto street artists PosterChild and Sean Martindale for their on the ground support and unending dedication to the cause. As well, a special thanks must go out to Martin Reis whose photographic support provided imagery of the streets without which we would have been blind. Lastly and not least, this project could not have taken place without the DUSPA collective and the incredible group of volunteers who risked arrest to install all of the work as well as help plan this wonderful event. Given the complete success of this event, we hope the TOSAT project will provide us with both a model and the confidence to bring this type of large scale non-violent civil disobedience project to cities abroad in the years to come.
