supposedly Saint Christopher is the blessor of transportation workers ....but this is no Saint Christopher...this is the high-rise-project-housing-prayer...the saint of cut-fences ...the saint of areas forgotten ...layered with old tires and used condoms ....the saint of janitors looking for a good place to drink vodka on their break,dreaming of their youth...the saint of moldy hiding spots for the timely decomposition of porno magazines that sprout fiddlesticks in the spring....the ravaged hinterland...a great place to break frozen early winter puddles with heavy rusty autoparts....this saint protects where i was raised and what i have become but i dont know who she is ...the shrine is clutter and the song long lost ..travel well..."

Pyongyang Un-like

2012-01-05T05:57:00.000-08:00

„Pyongyang Un-like“ - An installation by 3FOUR inspired by the Pyongyang metro.

From 1996 to 1998 the Pyongyang Metro authorities bought discarded Berlin subway cars from Germany which run with unmodified interior in the capital of North Korea. The only thing the authorities added are the portraits of Kim Il-sung (“The Great Leader”) and Kim Jong-il (“The Dear Leader”). Despite the prohibition of taking photos David Guttenfelder managed to take a picture of the inside of a Pyongyang subway car.

The installation is a reproduction of Guttenfelders photo in the Berlin subway of today. Additionally it shows Kim Jong-un, the son of Kim Jong-il who is currently seizing power after his fathers death.

Art vs Vandalism

2012-01-04T07:38:00.000-08:00

"Art versus Vandalism , an old topic of graffiti. Again and again discussed. At the moment the Berlin S-Train company puts stickers into fresh painted panels. To destroy writers works? Around 2000 the danish S-train Company of Copenhagen did the same with their "byens puls" stickers. Only more police and security made writers stop to paint trains all night long. Stickers are just stupid acts of incompetent authorities who try to frustrate writers and to denounce the act of painting a train." via mail - pictures online here via

Buffer just want to be artists, too !

When i see photos like the flix above i think pretty often "buffers don t like just to clean." They like to paint as well but they are just allowed to work with corporate identity colors. it s a shame that workers are not allowed to clean panels in the way they would like to. i guess writers would be happy to find a larger scale of background colors on trains and buffers at least would have fun by erasing panels and finally they can call themselves artists , too .

"A group of Guerilla Knitters which I am part of have recently (31 January to be precise) stormed the U1 in Berlin disguised with knitted beards and armed with knitted cozies, to beautify and soften the harsh interior of the everyday world of commuters. After 3 months of preparation with my Stitch N Bitch group, it took us just an hour to install, and the carriage stayed in circulation until around 15:00, when the BVG security unfortunately cut it all to pieces. Despite making those few employees miserable by giving them extra work, I think we cheered up a fair amount of weary travellers on a gloomy January day!"

Yarn Bombing Philidephia's Blue Line

From Conrad:

"Earlier today I got a message from a certain Ishknits yarn bombing artist telling me that she was heading out this afternoon to bomb SEPTA’s Blue Line and invited me to tag along to photograph it all for this blog. Needless to say I hopped right on the El, and from 15th street to 69th street and then back to the Dolphin street stop, she installed 3 pieces on 3 different trains. And even while we started on a near empty train by the end it was the beginning of rush hour and the train was packed, all the people on each train we very excited about the work.”
