Toronto: Graffiti alley
2/22/2016
For people who admires the beauty of street art as much as I do OR photographers whose looking for a good place to capture some awesome shots.
Graffiti alley
definitely a place to check out in Toronto.
Located in 'The Fashion District' of the city running parallel of Queen St. West between Spadina Ave and Portland St.
Some calls it vandalism, others call it art.
Personally, I love the nature of street art:
the unknown artists
the idea that you never know what's next... or if it will still be there the next time
The bright, vibrant colours are evident of the creative class of the city that goes unrecognized.
Its not about marking territories, more like adding characters to neighbourhoods.
A city without graffiti is a dead city to me.
