More Stencil Art from Hongdae

Hongdae Stencils - DOUBLE P

These are some of the most extensive stencils i've found. DOUBLE P has something to say and has found the tools to say it.

This is part of a larger piece but due to a parked car i was unable to get a better shot but i'll be back again to get the whole image in.

Stencil Art in Hongdae Part One

Hongdae in Seoul seems to be the mecca as far as wall arts is concerned. I spent a few hours there this afternoon and was unable to traverse every street and explore every nook and cranny. I'll be back for more. For now however I'll be spending the next few days posting images from today's exploration. First up, a set of Stencil Art of which there was a diverse selection.

Itaewon, The Beginning

Itaewon is foreigner central in Seoul, so with high hopes i promptly got myself lost in the back streets. Picking was slim however, despite the obvious evidence that there have been artists working in this area for quite some time. I figure the more time i give it, the more chance I'll have in finding nuggets, hence, this is only the beginning.

Evolution of an Artist - Shadow

I was walking the narrow alleyways of Yoksu with the hope of finding buried treasure and the further i troved the more i came to see the territories of particular taggers. They overlap within those zones and they overlap directly with the new taking over from the old. What i also found was the evolution of an artist. From first forays with a rushed hand into a deft touch creating art. I give you "Shadow".

A few samples of stencil work from my neighbourhood. All pieces are covering a single building and slowly grow in number.
