Toronto was the last stop on my seven city mural tour and it was a fun place to end the tour with a bang. The Obey Clothing crew tagged along for this one and photographer Jon Furlong put together this quick montage of the murals and other happenings in Toronto.
The whole mural tour was amazing! Public art is such an important philosophical component of my art practice, but it is rare for me to be able to do so many large scale works in so many cities – Los Angeles, Chicago, Philly, NY, Berlin, Johannesburg, and Toronto. I think art enriches people’s lives and these murals are free for the public to ponder. As Keith Haring said “the public has a right to art” and after many years of hit-and-run street art, and many arrests, I’m working every angle I can to bring free art to the public on a larger scale. I want to thank every person in every city who helped to facilitate these murals. THANK YOU! Oh, don’t worry… there’s a lot more to come!
