Cleaning up
Friday, June 1st, 2007
With the current hysteria over graffiti vandalism in downtown Hilo, it seems like a reasonably good time to link to an article on clean tagging hero and one time Samwise acquaintance Moose.
From The Creator Series …
What’s your philosophy in a nutshell?
Have a look what’s already there before you go and bring your kitchen sink to the party.What inspired the piece you’re exhibiting?
The cleaning power of a good-quality vacuum cleaner (mine’s a Dyson).What tool do you rely on most in your work?
Water (really), and being very finicky.What made you laugh today?
Looking at a patch of ground and thinking how dirty it was and how good it would look it I clean-tagged it, then realizing I was standing outside a police station.
UPDATE : Found a blog entry which contains an image of a stenciled image seen around Hilo, the origins of which I do not know, I always assumed it was Hawai’i County.
