once upon a pavement

step out. step out. the pitter patter of a single set of soles. they might multiply. they might get somewhere. faced with governmental machinery. or worse still militarial. the many become few. the few become one. and make all the difference.

This little piece went up in Barcelona around the time protest began in Egypt.

Deface Face

Real Americans, though not very well respected, have a reservation. As do the public.

Living in a box. A myopia pertaining to the inability to see beyond ones own experiences.
What a dose

feat: CHAOS and BOXHEAD

CHAOS' tags can be found all over Barcelona. He is one of the cities most prolific taggers.
BOXHEAD (i think that's his name) is found in quite a few spots in a few different guises. I don't believe I have any more photos though. If only I was a wee bit more organised....

Corazónes y Cabezas

los corazónes del hombres romperían sin problemas. no son tan facil arreglarlos. pero encontraría lo peor peligrosa es en el cabeza. en el mente.

...la veo de reojo...

Ví de reojo una mujer con piel blanco. La ví y me sorprendio. No se como pero ella pudo ver a traves de mi. Dentro. De fuera. Ella me dijo, "porque no sonreis con más de tu boca. Porque puedo ver las grietas en tu corazon? Porque piensas que solo existas al centro de tu cabeza. ¡Escapate! Eres más"

hands free

Always on the up. Subir. Aumentar. From 1972 until today and on, at an ever increasing speed of life. Lets try to fit everything in to the shortest space of time. But really what is a space of time? I can't take hold of it or even see a space of time...

...even so, a space almost implies an emptiness. A void across which things pass...

time is richness. full to the brim

amor oscuro

...its hidden in amongst the darkest corners of yourself. and general it reflects badly on you...
it is myth and fallacy.

Wet Peacock

It's over exposed. It was a wet night. And I might have been carrying a hot dog or two. Anyway I think the Peacock is gone now so I thought i should share.

Running with a Horse on a String

I have been very lazy but hopefully this will signal that I am back. Going through all my photos from Barcelona from the last 6 months and I'll start putting them up. Enjoy. Comment. Share

I'm currently trying to get el director of my bank to sign some new passport photos for me...

Protests

This photo was taken around the time that people began to occupy Placa Catalunya enocuraging people to take part in democracy.

--The People Decide Nobody Represents Them--

Attached are a few photos from Placa Catalunya on the night of the 28th of May (the night after the Police violently tried to clear the square).

I hate this Ray-Ban Bullshit!

So RayBan started this Never Hide marketing campaign this summer and seem to have handed out these stencil-frames (or maybe they have a street team...). You may have noticed it on the previous post around the head of the dude. Within a 2 week period these Never Hide things were all over my area of Barcelona, primarily on graffiti and around the head of the subjects. Grrrr. I can't really complain, its graffiti after all, I just wish it wasn't Ray-Ban getting there message onto it.

Anyways, rant over.

el arte es basura

Barcelona based graffiti artist, el arte es basura, usually uses mixed media to make his pieces. Using the walls, props and papers to make pieces that jump off the wall and create another space between the wall and the street....unfortunately the photo I've taken is pretty straightforward. But thankfull here is a link to a whole host of his stuff that is absolutely amazing.

Who Can Say?

A Distinct Lack of Motivation....

I'm suffering from a major motivational hazard. Who can say what it is but in an attempt to move out of it I'll try landing up some new photos.

Here is a photo from Poblenou, Barcelona. This is an old industrial area in the constantly increasing metropolitan area. This area has seen a lot of change and many of the photos I have from Barca are from here.

With the return of som motivation I can hopefully tell a few stories about Poblenou too...For now enjoy this

faces

Continuing the theme of faces in places....this is the last photo from Cork for the moment. Next stop.....Barcelona

MOBE again

MOBE

MOBE has been putting up these pieces around Cork for probably about a year now (it could be longer). I was really enjoying them just turning up around the city when I was living there. Unfortunately because they weren't on the surface of buildings and walls when I went back to take photos they were gone (and thats why I really have to remember my camera). Mostly it was probably me just forgetting where I saw them. Anywhere, here are a few MOBE's from around Cork.

That's it

I'm not really sure what to make of this really...

Ladybirds

Located in the Graffiti Car Park, Cork. I think its on Dunbar Street....otherwise Rutland Street. There are a few to follow from here, taken last year. Its one of the few places in Ireland where graffiti is allowed. the walls change regularly in there.
