crackerCAM-brazilian street art

growing up and living in NYC has exposed me to a colorful array of street art. not to be confused with most tagging, that familiar script and permanent blight of the urban landscape, street art can present beautiful and often vibrant images on otherwise gritty backdrops.

the images are sometimes reflections of society, tributes to loved ones, or simply outlets of creativity. greater attention has slowly surfaced around specific artists like neckface, locations like five points, or styles like the unique works found in brazil. recently a gallery surrendered its walls to the creative license of a few street artists from sao paulo.

before you know it, you’ll find their works on the bottoms of skateboards.
