Mart Aire

Mart Aire is a Spanish street artist who was born in Argentina and started painting the streets from the age of 12 joining the first generation of graffiti artists in Argentina. In 2007 his style started to evolve with his change to approach painting with a more pictorial style and started painting the murals his is know for today.

He has a very nice, free style with his work containing very playful, dream like characters on things bikes and stylise characters covering the walls of Buenos Aires. His work is full of vibrant colours which i find beautiful, creating huge pieces of art work through the city. His work seems to be very positive and happy feeling very free as if showing the liveliness and freeness of the city in his work. 

3 stories in wood - Lara Gallagher

I liked this piece because although it felt almost like it was an animation, it included no movement just a narrative with props focusing on what you imagine is happening with the story which kept me focused throughout the 3 short stories. The artist Lara Gallagher is a writer/director which explains the style in this video. The way props are used to help tell the story is very theatrical in a way leaving you to make up more you own mine with whats happening within the video.

I guess it shows just how effective just hearing a story can be and how important are imagination is in such instances. Writing stories is not my strong point but i feel animating them is probably something i could do alot better even though this contains no movement throughout the readings.

i just really liked this piece along with the story that people can relate to, making visualisation alot easier. It is something i have not really seen before or at least has not really stuck with me in such a way.
