I can certainly think of more pleasant ways to start my day....
These tags are visually displeasing and entirely pointless.
The antisocial morons did the whole street. Unfortunately some of the retailers on Darby Street have been worn down & no longer paint over this vandalism.
We have always had a policy of painting it out as soon as we see it. Otherwise our building would look abandoned.
Isn't it pathetic that when I first saw this effort I was relieved it was not oil based crayon, paint on our windows or scratched into the glass. We have endured all three of these in the past year.I know I sound like a fascist but I'd so like to scrawl nonsense all over these vandals' prize possessions to try to teach them EMPATHY.
(A word that I have, ironically, painted over many times.
If you have been to Newcastle you'll know why.)

sorry to hear it. I hate that about Newcastle. Nowhere do we really have decent street art, but the place is full of these idiotic tags. grumble grumble.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ruby Shoes!
ReplyDeleteI love stencil art & regard that as an authentic form of self expression (not that my Landlord would allow me to leave it on shop walls if some were to appear unfortunately) but tagging!!?? Why bother?? Takes ZERO skill & is just a visual assault. Grumble grumble too!
