INSA: GIF-I-TI

Photobucket

A new INSA collaboration with Unit 44’s White Walls out in Newcastle that moves away from traditional graffiti and more in to realm of street art. Taking a lead from the Blu's movement in to stop animation Insa  produces his biggest and most complex moving piece yet. Gif-i-ti, the product of a labour intensive process of painting up the entire wall and re-painting it almost immediately in order to create a stop motion movie and an animated gif. The wonders of INSA.

As the Oscars draw a little closer Banksy continues his work around Hollywood with four more pieces. An article in the Guardian expresses Oscar organisers concerns of Banksy impostors as they reject his request to wear a disguise to the event.
