Rapture

We spotted this very distressed and aged looking paster in the 18b Arts District that has a cryptic coded message. This interesting piece hints at who made and got up with this piece, the artist is actually It's Me It's Erik and now it seems obvious now that we've told you doesn't it? Well, someone else tagged one of his other pieces online, so now the mystery is over and we are glad to finally know who it is. We gotta say that we LOVE how this piece looks old and distressed, this mix of kraft paper, dirt and rust simply make this piece achieve another level. The added effect of wheatpaste running down the dirty city planter make it feel ancient and the added Sharpie writing bring it right back to the now. The unplanned juxtaposition of dirt and art are the perfect mix on the streets, we'd certainly love to see more of this style and union of art and street.
