New work from Frizzell and Son (Dick and Otis F) and Weston Frizzell (Otis Frizzell and Mike Weston in collaboration.
In the vocabulary of graffiti art the term Blockbuster refers to a piece where one word occupies the entire wall. The outlined text is predominantly defined by the blacking out of the gaps and negative space. Parasitic of the underlying work, a BLOCKBUSTER envelopes and consumes the surface.

A Blockbuster is also the biggest thing of the summer, the thing everyone has to see.

JoFF Rae : ARTIVIST

>>> ARTIVIST : creative collaborate with the most experienced & productive artists with capable & humble technicians in New Zealand to develop specific product for target market demographics… we make content to suit our target audience! artivist Artivist is a portmanteau word combining “art” and “activist“. Artivism developed in recent years while the anti-globalization and antiwar protests emerged and proliferated. In most of the cases artivists attempt to push political agendas by the means of art. Yet this is not political art as it was known before, in the sense of artworks being political. The artivist is often involved in Streetart or Urban Art, Adbusting or Subvertising.
