I finally got a chance to see the Heavy Artillery HAters Exhibition at Prescription Art. All the work on display was, as to be expected, top notch with works from Aroe, Gary, Gyroe, Roid, Odisy, Storm, Gebes, Insa and some others. Here is a selection of photos from the ground floor and the first floor but unfortunately i didn’t have a chance to see the basement.
Some flicks from the last couple of weeks. Brighton mainly but also some London stuff.
More to come soon…
My first attempt since Christmas. More flicks from the other walls coming soon.
…and there it is! When reading online reviews of Prague before coming, I kept hearing peoples complaints about the amount of Graff on the city walls. The ‘in your face’ tagging and throws right in the centre. This of course made for even more of a reason to visit. Here is a very small (Emphasis on the very) amount of Prague’s bombing scene, but perhaps a good set of examples. One of the most notable writers was Post who almost had his throw on the backs of all the tourists he was up so much. Also, Huge, Oner, Tron, ISK Crew, Blunk, Tager, Super, KNS Crew, Perry, Dize, PMC Crew, Tribe, Bros, Ske, Hanes, Caps, Epos, Bonus & Das to name but a few more. Prague is a sick sick city and id definitely recommend a visit some time!
Here is the second half. Remembering that this two part selection is just the cream of the crop you’ll realise the vastness of the Slovenian scene. If you like this selection from this most recent trip, try to check out SLOGRAFF to see more such sprayings! Less talk this time, more pictures! Enjoy…

So theres the end of this second slovenia post. Look out for more on GRAFFWARS soon!
How ever much the guide books hype it up, Slovenia is a country most people have never heard of before. Therefore even I am confused as to why it was the destination for my summer holiday this year. As the following photos will prove, it was a stoke of fortune! In Slovenia, things are laid back and slow. You can walk on the tracks whenever and wherever you want. Everyone speaks English and beer is €1.50! Oh yeah, and the trains never get buffed. I was seeing panels from 2003 still running! The main station in the capitol (Ljubljana) was sea of colour where it was rare to see a train that was not painted. There was some really sick writers up on the trains with frequent appearances from Italian writers. To name but a few who stood out to me were ‘Files’, The ‘City Rats’ Crew and ‘Guns’ (Crew?). Files in particular had a legendary selection of panels ranging from a small production with some other writers to enormous whole cars. In all I took about 1000 photos just of graff and most of them were panels. I stayed in the Celica Hostel, which is a sweet place to go if ever in that neck of the woods. This post will be a two part section just due to the sheer number of photos!
Ogre (Guns) -My Favorite windowdown from the trip!
Acab (Zek) -slightly dogged unfortunately…
Guns, Files
CityRats -These guys were seriously up! This is in the busiest part of the old town at night next to the Ljubljanica river!

Horny? -At a football pitch next to Tivoli Park.

Files -The slovene train cleaners dont seem to care about the graffiti on their trains. They only clean the windows, the train names and the serial numbers off and then things stay!
Plus1
Guns -Lightning-Bolt freshness.

So that is it for this post! There are even more to come but I’ll need another evening to get that sorted so enjoy these for now! …and go to slovenia if you can! Its an awesome place!
Having finally once again experienced that English rarity called “sunshine”…the Disney-film-like predictability that is our weather system has once again come up trumps. Yes, the rain is back. While the sun was still shining however, I dashed outside to gather some new flicks to plaster the walls of this blog. Some of the content isn’t particularly new but damn its good. So…enjoy.
Aroe, always churning out the burners. this one was dedicated to ‘Frosty Freeze’, the breakdancer, who sadly passed away recently. I chose this detail shot for two reasons, the line perfection on and around the ‘a’ and because the outline on that letter is pure sex.
This whole thing.
The incredible Gaz with Laz in front.
I hadn’t really heard of Roid until recently but damn his stuff is sick! Check Here for more crazyness from him.
The Atch man with his nice styles and cool characters
…and not forgetting the notorious Rolf. If you didn’t catch this being painted on t.v. with aroe and odisy..then you were a fooo sucka!
Letters by the man Gaz with a special appearance from the man Bully. Im too young for that nostalgic moment but you might not be.
..!
Freshness at the level from Ritz and Sam TMC. big up to Sam.
Quick shit.
