urban poetry.

I love the ability of street art to cause you to pause and think while going about your day. I appreciate its potential and the whole notion of bringing art into public space--using its power to communicate thoughts on culture and grab our attention.

This is the work of London based artist Robert Montgomery, who hijacks advertising space to post text that is "part poetry, part an enquiry into our collective subconscious." See more of his work here.

For more thoughts on street art, check out the amazing work of TED-prize winner JR. And, have you seen Banksy's documentary Exit Through The Gift Shop? Definitely an interesting perspective/expose on the street art world (and quite the fascinating & funny documentary in its own right).

Hope you had a great weekend and didn't rock out too hard at that end of the world party or spend all your money at the casino!
