/>“My local city council recently commissioned the painting of traffic light
boxes by local artists, community groups etc.. It is ridiculous that public art
is seen as “legitimate” if it is sanctioned by some government authority, but
artists who put up un-commissioned work are prosecuted and given police
records.

As a subversive response to these commissioned works I have
taken things into my own hands, appropriated one of these boxes and painted it
to espouse a pro-graffiti dialect. Such a work would hardly get through the
first process of bureaucratic panel review by community officials.”
