I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.

I talks about Bristol and Bristol street art. There is gobs of info on that wave mural you posted on about two or three months ago as well.
Her take on Bristol is kinda like some people in California especially Southern California. I was offended in parts and i am not even from Bristol. California –for all its talk–is one of the least green states in the US.
Sorry for the tangent. Hope you get some good info from the article.
The article is slightly damning with faint praise, and inaccurate in places. I can’t make up my mind whether the author enjoyed their trip to Bristol or not. Anyhow, it really only focussed on the ‘trophy’ street art…there is so so much more.
Yeah. My feelings to. I felt it was condescending about several things. BUT it does talk about the wave wall. I wonder why the guide didn’t take her to the Stinkfish piece. Oh well.
Imagine coming in like that with a dog!

I was reading a really interesting article on the NY TIMES. I think you might be interested. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/27/travel/bristol-england-street-art.html?_r=0
