I may have spent too many years in the small dark theater of Preston at Bard being lectured by Adolfas Mekas on the beauty of painted film but nonetheless he did a great job of instilling a deep appreciation in me for the seemingly simple but utmost beautiful. Hence, my obsession with walls, especially graffiti and well tagged walls. The one above is from the corner of Houston and Bowery, the one below is from the bathroom at one of my favorite sushi places in the East Village, Takahachi on Avenue A. I love the repetition of color and lines in the one above.
