“Obviously my own work comes from a conceptual art tradition, but I love the graffiti artists, and I feel spiritually closer to them than to most contemporary art; they make the city a free space of diverse voices and we shouldn't get all cynical about them just because Banksy made some money. I collaborate sometimes with Krae, who is an old school east London graffiti writer.” FeelsArtMadeSometimesSchoolArtistVoiceMy OwnSpaceCitiesTraditionEastLondonContemporaryCynicalDiverseOld SchoolGraffitiContemporary ArtConceptual ArtGraffiti ArtistEast London Author:Robert Montgomery
“The street is the most impactful for me really, always, and the Internet. I guess I'd like to sell some more light pieces so I can rent some more billboards; that's my only ambition in life really. Then I'd like to save up some money so I can buy a very simple wooden house, and then after that I'd like to start buying billboards. I'd like to buy a bunch of billboards in different cities so we owned them and I could give them to Occupy to tell the truth with.” GivingI CanDifferentLightHouseSimpleCitiesPiecesStreetsInternetAmbitionSellsBunchBuyingTelling The TruthBillboardsLife AmbitionWooden House Author:Robert Montgomery
“Say, care-worn man, Whom Duty chains within the city walls, Amid the toiling crowd, how grateful plays The fresh wind oer thy sickly brow, when free To tread the springy turf,— to hear the trees Communing with the gales,—to catch the voice Of waters, gushing from their rocky womb, And singing as they wander... Spring-hours will come again, and feelings rise With dewy freshness oer thy witherd heart.” MenHeartPlayFeelingsCareVoiceWaterNatureHoursCitiesTreeWindDutyWallSpringSingingGratefulCrowdsWanderChainsWornWombBrowsFreshnessGaleTurfToilingCity Walls Book:A Universal Prayer, Death, A Vision of Heaven and A Vision of Hell Source: A Universal Prayer, Death, A Vision of Heaven and A Vision of Hell
