because we like art

The art of communication

Long time no talk! I have been way too busy in the past months! But I haven’t forgotten this project and I hope it will get moving with the upcoming spring. I plan on getting more collaborators too!

So I’ve been quite sick lately which gave me time to check out my favorite blogs and see what’s up. One thing I found which I really liked was about this ‘Chris’ guy letting very personal invites in the streets, kind of like facebook events or craigslist ads.

This is an example of what we call guerilla art, a great medium of communication that changes the way we see our regular urban streets and makes us stop to read and experience what’s around us. It’s also a way to bring strangers closer by trying an experiment together. I’ve read a book about it named The Guerilla Art Kit which is full of wonderful ideas.

Have any of you ever tried street art and what did you do exactly? Any photos? Would love to share what has been done in Montreal!
