S143 introduces to you master graffiti hunter Lauren Daniels of Seattle Graffiti. Keep in mind these words of wisdom:

The revolution is for display purposes only.

“Graffiti is not the lowest form of art. Despite having to creep about at night and lie to your mum it’s actually the most honest artform available. There is no elitism or hype, it exhibits on some of the best walls a town has to offer, and nobody is put off by the price of admission…

Some people become cops because they want to make the world a better place. Some people become vandals because they want to make the world a better looking place.”

- Banksy, Wall and Piece 2005

Graffiti can make you smile, break your heart, make you think, or at the very least make you stop to consider your surroundings every once in a while. Public art done by the people for the people is of great value in our society.

After a generous donation from our friends down at Artist & Craftsman Supply in San Diego, Acamonchi was locked and loaded with 8 cans of Montana Gold and the blank canvas of a reclaimed pedicab waiting for its moment to become art for the upcoming Reinventing the Wheel show.

That moment has officially begun, as Acamonchi laid down the first few psychedelic layers of paint today.

Enjoy, fellow Sanctuarians!
