On this week's show we profiled the artist Above, specifically his Sign Language Tour project. He's obviously influenced by graffiti and pop culture, and it's interesting that the mission statement on his website asks more questions than it answers. And if you want to buy any of his work, you are required to fill out a questionnaire first. Heh. :)
Paul "Moose" Curtis is considered the pioneer of reverse graffiti art, also known as clean tagging. Graffiti usually gets a bad rap, because it's associated with vandalism or property damage. Reverse graffiti spins that on its head by doing the exact opposite.
Check out this amazing piece of billboard graffiti by AUGOR in LA at Melrose & Mansfield. Pay attention to the detail and integration with the original billboard art. PT Anderson should be proud.

Recently joined MIX member bronx made has some great graf skills. Bronx is the birthplace of hip-hop and bombing, and both Zadi and I are from the Bronx originally, so we're glad to see bronx made on MIX. And check out the tattoo!
