This is an absolutely beautiful and charming piece from Desi, demonstrating what a great graffiti writer she has become. The combination piece has her VEIL letters accompanied by a small Mini Mouse character.
Desi has grown both in confidence and stature over the years. The fill in this piece is particularly attractive, incorporating some subtle white spots on grey and fetching zebra stripes, which always go down well. A nicely conceived and executed piece.
It was a case of third time lucky with these pictures… my previous efforts were taken in bright sunlight and a shadow was cast across the middle of the piece, so while the colours were perhaps a little more vibrant the photographs were shit (pardon me). (my spell checker has just highlighted a profanity, ha ha).
Taboo is a real favourite of mine and his wacky of-beat pieces are a fantastic challenge to all that is conventional in street art. Taboo’s writing is eratic and unpredictable and usually in a monotone, somewhat akin to the writing of Alos and other similar writers, but then, alongside this unconventional writing, Boom! Taboo gives us a perfect rendition of Mini Mouse.
This juxtaposition is what gives his work its unique and memorable identity, something we can all identify with while at the same time be puzzled by. I have made it no secret that I am a big fan of his work and get a buzz whenever I see his stuff.
