Spanning two high cliffs
suspended in time and space
Brunel’s finest bridge.

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.
262. Dean Lane skate park (8)
Now I am back in the UK, after a wonderful trip across ‘the pond’, I can resume my posts on Bristol street art/graffiti (with maybe a couple of guest entries from New York).
This is a truly brilliant collaboration from a few weeks ago in Dean Lane between Zesk and Hemper. Zesk has appeared in these pages a couple of times, and his writing is becoming much more familiar, especially his choice of colours (purples and golds) combined with spheres. Hemper I haven’t come across before, which is a little surprising as he has been writing in Bristol since 2009. There is a lovely profile on Hemper here – from the great ‘Weapon of Choice‘ website.
This collaboration was a bit of fun, and I think was sprayed at the same time as the recent Inkie piece. You will notice that a writer – Suger – has made an appearance. His improving burners are turning up all over the place in Bristol.
Now back to the streets, where I have already noticed a whole bunch of new stuff has gone up while I have been away.
Ambition
I can jump so high
to the moon and stars above
believe me I can.

Groundhog day
Saw my first today
only a fleeting glimpse; I
saw my first today.

My recent trip to the United States offered so many new experiences, and wildlife encounters…expect more to crop up in this blog.
England
Farewell New England;
old England awaits, flights booked
we’re on our way home.

The stillness reaches
into my soul; once again
I can breathe easy.

Railroad
Abundant green growth
shares the trackside with discards
and bold graffiti.

A restful moment

261. The Bearpit (19)
19When it comes to Deamze pieces, we have come to expect some complex and elaborate wildstyle work. It is not always the case though, and this is an example of a simpler style of piece that he produces from time to time.
More like a throw up (a rapidly produced and usually spontaneous work), this clean and simple piece demonstrates the full range of talent springing from the incredibly prolific Deamze. Bristol’s greatest writer?
