A Home Away from Home @ 5Pointz: Bonhomme, Sorick, Dekor, Eafo, Kram, Warz, Flying Fortress and Inkie

A Mecca of aerosol art, Long Island City’s 5Pointz attracts not only local artists, but also those from across the globe, offering a transitory legal home to a diverse range — from Old School graff writers to modern muralists.  Here are some recent sightings:

I like this art very much. It is nice to know there are people doing this stuff. No one these days stops to see a brick wall. Seriously, keep on doing buildings and make those bricks worth to stare at. Everybody is in a hurry these days. Maybe citizens stop to wonder around some more that way.
