This work is about the gentrification of my neighbourhood. it is also about the fragility of life's circumstances. I'm too old to get busted for graffitti, so i can do this in broad day light and have great conversations with people about the work. After a couple of days or weeks, the mattresses are taken to the dump. i post all my work on a blog site called ilovestkilda.com

my hips took a risk while sleeping out

This advice came from an old guy I know who used to sleep out until his hips 'went' from sleeping on the cold ground. However another uy who i met thought it was a message from an aggrieved woman who thought her partner was always sleeping around. The message is always in the eye of the beholder.

This girl has a great site with a really interesting view of the world. She takes the street trash to a whole new level.

great work, yesterday I talked for 40 minutes about streetmatt with a guy who really understood the complexity of this micro-cosmos, I can imagine the same conversations when you are at work
