300ft Site Hoarding for GreyFriars Hotel Colchester Essex.
Three days of painting in the sun.
Aim to brighten up the town and create a talking point that would draw attention to new hotel. The public's reaction was overwhelmingly positive, I was constantly stoping and talking to curious passers by.

D.I.Z.N.I Group show. Graffik Gallery London

Good to see some new and old faces.
Although the show was actually D.I.Z.N.I as in Dysfunctional, Irate, Zany Neurotic, Individuals it turned out to be very much a Micky Mouse Art show.

BURGER KING

noreply@blogger.com (EYESAW) — Sun, 03 Jul 2011 22:18:00 +0000

Burger King questions and explores our unhealthy relationship with junk food.
Logos and brand identity have been cut from the original bus shelter advertising posters and juxtapose with Eyesaw's silhouette figures to produce a image of ironic truth. "Burger king" suggests that from childhood we are bribed with toys and balloons by greedy corporations in an attempt to gain life long customer loyalty ignoring the facts that this type of food is detrimental to our health.

"THE LAST CAPITALIST"

noreply@blogger.com (EYESAW) — Mon, 18 Apr 2011 07:35:00 +0000

"THE LAST CAPITALIST WE HANG SHALL BE THE ONE WHO SOLD US THE ROPE" (Karl Marx)

After installing this piece I decided to hang around the bus stop for a while (no pun intended) to observe the reaction of the public, as I sat waiting a elderly couple approached I then over heard the woman say to the man "what are they selling now"to which he replied "looks like a horror story".

PLAY STATION

noreply@blogger.com (EYESAW) — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 22:02:00 +0000

71% of adults used to play on the streets when they were young 21% of children do so nowadays.

This was an experiment on how I could make a piece of work to highlight the fact that it is rare to see children playing on the streets anymore.

"NO ADDED PRESERVATIVE"

noreply@blogger.com (EYESAW) — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 21:43:00 +0000

After reading an article in the sun newspaper titled “laughing all the way to the Banksy” I decided to make a piece of work to question whether illegal graffiti should be protected and preserved for others to enjoy and what makes Banksy graffiti acceptable over other graffiti that is quite often removed or painted over.

The article described how property owners where busy trying to protect Banksys graffiti, that had appeared on their buildings. With Banksy’s art now fetching high prices at auction, it was believed the artwork could in fact boost the value of their property by £150,000

The article went on to explain how two new pieces of Banksy’s work had appeared recently and the owners where planning on covering the new works with large sheets of clear Perspex in a attempt to preserve the work.

I had decided that if my work was to have any impact then I would have to try and adopt Banksy sense of humour, timing and placement.

CRAP JOKE

noreply@blogger.com (EYESAW) — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 20:59:00 +0000

So there I was on a busy afternoon in the middle of London w10.

Stencil taped to the wall lookouts in place, painting a image of a man having a crap reading a paper with the headline "99.9% of street art is recycled crap" just as I removed the cardboard stencil from the wall I thought shit I missed recycling day.

Shouts to Trit and Greg.
