A curious passer by watches graffiti artists painting a wall on the belt line in Atlanta. A gentrification of the area has brought urbanity and grit together with modest wealth and affluence. In efforts to preserve a community of artists, the city promotes public art, but not necessarily graffiti artists. I happened to catch this curious passer by at the right moment and was drawn to the dichotomy of the mangled sculpture on the left, the children on their bikes just as curious od her, and the shapes and forms of the graffiti and the bridge itself.
