Modern Ode to Duchamp, or Sticker Attack
This is a shot of the modern “Da-da” sticker graffiti that I like, in the men’s restroom of my favorite local bar. Liquor brands, company stickers, and band names plastered all over the wall. A piece of art built up over time by multitudes of participants. That is fascinating to me. I saw a lot of it down in Vegas as well, and it’s an interesting urban occurrence. It gives character to otherwise bare walls, which I hate. If you find this disgusting, then fair enough, but Duchamp would be proud of this I think. You should see what he did with a urinal. The story is actually quite humorous to me. A real affront to the old world of fine art, which I can appreciate.

I don't know why but waterfall stickers help me go
Or maybe a leaky faucet sticker? Lol.
This a great bit work, it tells the story of everyday people doing everyday life at and everyday bar. It's almost got a life of it's own, it grows and changes without premeditated design. A symbol of the culture it came from.

There's a significant amount of commentary in that statement. To me it's a representation of the underground cultures. Disorganized, yet working toward a common goal nonetheless. Imagine what we could get done if we were organized...
A movement we would be. Change the world we could.
Bicker and fight instead we do.
Talk like Yoda unintentionally I do...
Wise words, especially in the tongue of the Great Master Yoda. Unity and purpose we must achieve.
