my affinities towards street art grows more and more each day. as i peruse the wooster collective’s site on a daily basis i’ve come to realize that art is really more about the sinews of the artist processes and intentions than the actual art itself. swaths of symbols become the new logos of collective consciousness wheat pasted to the sides of building and overpasses. all the while leaving the artist entirely autonomous. the space between the viewer and the art itself is not framed or subjugated to a gallery or any other subsumed environment that is regulated by societal norms. which in turn leaves the viewer autonomous as well. street art in all of it’s myriad and innovative forms is becoming more and more ubiquitous around the world. leaving our old forms of hero-worship behind, and making way for both the artist and individual viewer to claim his or her own opinions.
