From the article:
“That’s every single kid in this city just putting their name down, showing they exist and taking the city back.”
And the wives hate their husbands, the husbands don't care
Their children daub slogans to prove they lived there
A giant pipe organ up in the air
On Tuesday, Michael Delahaut, who lives across the street, said he was watching police raid the buildings. To the 54-year-old, who has been in the L.A. graffiti scene since the 1980s, the creation outside his window was no nuisance — it was more like waking up and finding a masterpiece had been installed in his living room.
“It would’ve taken hundreds of writers, tens of thousands of cans. It’s amazing,” he said. “I’ve been able to witness a lot of graffiti movement moments, but this might be the biggest.”
That must have been so great to watch. I love graffiti. Not just someone writing their tag in pen, that's just low-effort shit. Real graffiti where someone has taken time to make something beautiful? I love it. And there is so much beauty on those buildings where there was just waste before.
Seems like the archive paywall bypass has been nerfed. Work for anyone else?
