kapitalisms Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Before I joined TE, I started to make photo's of the grafity on the walls.

This morning I posted the first titled enjoy capitalism, and this is the other one.
I won't post many more, but together they give a good impression of the artist, and the level of quality some have.

The message is clear from the beginning in both pictogramms, and what I particulary like is the good use of graphics here.

The alarmclock with the time being replaced by numbers and Lats (LS, our currency), instead of time ticking away, prices rise as the clock followes it's course.

Hi,
Very deep picture, I like the idea it is superb! And good contrast between gray, white and black.

David,

Very nice i think i prefer this to the first. A little more thought from the artist. I agree with Brazil wood about the composition its nice to see a little of the other graffitti in shot.
Nice work and a great spot

Very nice work. Yet, I think everybody will be pleased if you make a blog uploading them all together. I am thinking of making some sort of project on the ideas of "street artists" and I am really interested in seeing your full work.

i think thats an important photo and the effects of extreme capitalisim and its inherent evil if not in a democratic way, cooperations take over the governemnt (like the US) cause wars to gurrantee theft of other countries. I wish you would have showed more or put more in the frame, maybe it would have even more powerfull to place it with regular people passing by. regardless its a good reportage photo.
