Stuck Up in NYC

Faust

I’ve been lucky enough to spend a week in New York City recently, a place I’ve loved since my first visit back in 2000. It’s fascinating to see the city evolve along with its street art/graffiti – much like the East End of London some classic spots have gone, making way for coffee shops and inexplicably crap yet expensive bars. One thing that always struck me about the city was the proliferation of sticker art. As a form they’ve been dear to me – whether it was the little characters you’d get in bubble gum packs from the corner shop after school through to grabbing old Powell Peralta designs for Caballero and Welinder and putting them on my school folders.
