Post-Graffiti Street Art, composed of images and words, emphasizes artistic interventions into physical and cultural landscapes. I want also, as an artist, to make changes to the images that I find in these public places and I do that by adding to the original found image by adding to it with collage, QR codes and paint These images are varied in subject matter and involve criticism and humour, but they are, in situ, inherently transient. Part of my ongoing interest is preservation of some of the best of this art, as a window into culture and the times in which we live, as it has truly become a global phenomenon.
