Phlegm dissected, Cities of Hope - May 2016

"Well that's shite" the old chap said with passion "it's just a big bloody crappy bottle".

It was, a bottle and I explained why I was photographing the shite, the old chap paused and looked on again, after a few moments of silence then came a firm response "that is bloody impressive, whoever painted that has far, far too much time on his hands".

So lets take a closer look and break it down and see the detail.

 

In my eyes a masterpiece.

For more Phlegm get a butchers at this.

Cities of Hope, Street Art, Manchester - May 2016

Street artists gathered in Manchester the last week of May, the aim to highlight social injustice.

Whilst I didn't track them all down, I gave it a good go in my old stomping ground of Ancoats an the Northern Quarter.

First off we have Dale Grimshaw, a local artist, I first saw his work at the the ghost ship known as the Duke of Lancaster and his art is always colourful and stunningly good.

Next up Pichiavo, for the charity Guns to Goods.

German Artist, Case, working for with charity Back on Track

The back of Tib Street, had a few crackers hidden away.

I didn't catch them all, as I said, but one I did however snap was the mural by Phlegm for Ancoats Dispensary Trust - but I'm going dissect that piece a little more in my next post.
