Inspiration: Nuria Mora

Nuria Mora has been an inspiration of mine for quite sometime (see this post), and so when I heard about her new installation where she painted on a rooftop by the East River in New York City, I had to go take a look. See the result (just below) and the process here.

Then I came across this video and thought you'd like to see more of her work too. I love her use of colours and the graphics. I'd love to somehow translate some of this block coloured graphics on a wall in a house.

Margaret Kilgallen at MOCA's "Art In the Streets"

A must-see if you're in Los Angeles right now and you're a fan of street art and graffiti is the Art in the Streets exhibit at the MOCA .   Art in the Streets is the first major U.S. museum survey of the history of graffiti and street art presented in the United States.  Included is the work of the late (and Poppytalk favourite), Margaret Kilgallen.  Fun fact: Margaret's work is featured on the cover of April's Juxtapoz magazine.  Read a write-up about the show here and her show-stopping part of the exhibit. The exhibit runs almost all summer long (April 17 - August 8th, 2011)!  (All images juxtapoz.com).
