OBEY. CONSUME. BE SILENT. AND DIE.

So... I've been involved in some heavy research about Guerilla Art lately and dug into some pretty interesting stuff. I came across this video which puts the feelings of street artists about the current economy pretty bluntly. I've recently discovered an abundance of street artists involved heavily in the current street art movement, not just in the sense of spray painting artwork onto a wall, but also artists such as Noki who tear apart designer clothes and hold an anti-fashion catwalk show. Other artists including Rammellzee, express their art through street performance, creating bizarre costumes from recycled materials and adopting a different persona and acting out many different God characters that he has created.
