Tile Mosaic Graffiti
A Tile graffiti from Invader
I’ve blogged several different types of graffiti. But not Mosaic Graffiti… Actually I discovered this in the streets of Paris. I saw a few of them and wondered if this was something official, maybe some type of modern art (there has been some pretty weird legal modern art stuff around). But speaking with a friend I found out that this is actually graffiti.
It’s some of the nicest graffiti I have seen, not too loud, not too big but nice and funny.
It’s done by Invader, there’s more information on his graffiti here. He has done hundreds of these all over the world.
More coming…

The Grenade Perfume
This stencil was used by a theater company in Paris to promote their show. The theatre piece is called “Les vipères se parfument au jasmin” I have no idea what it is about and any quality.
However the stencil piece they used is great and could have been from Banksy or Dolk. In fact maybe it is but I haven’t been able to find out.
The perfume grenade stencil (pochoir) poster from the Paris subway.
If someone knows who did the original art please leave a comment.
On another note, I started a thread called “Who has been blogging graffiti” on www.blogcatalog.com, see the link here: http://www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/entry/who-has-blogged-graffiti and there are some really interesting graffiti styles out there. Such as the one from Bayarts about moss graffiti. Will definitely blog that one shortly.
