WEB URBANIST
BANKSY
Anonymous street artist, Banksy is one of my all-time favorite writers. His work has been seen around the world, yet nobody knows who he is. From political to comical or thought-provoking, this graffiti artist's work has been seen since the early 90's. I think what I like the most about Banksy is the added mystique he's managed to maintain over the years. Little is known about him other than his country of origin (Bristol, UK) and a few minor details. Be sure to check out this eight-part series on his works.
