These kinds of pieces can provide surprisingly decent food for thought at times, as one is strolling down the street to the shop or pub or wherever....
For instance, I photographed this contribution at Grenville Place in July 2012....
"Man is not stupid or intelligent - He is Free of not!!!!!" |
I found the following written on the side of a bank at Parnell Place in June 2012. I think the way this word is scratched in black onto a dull grey wall of stone is somehow evocative of these recessionary times....
"RECESSION!" |
I found this one written on the front wall of the Kino Cinema - sadly derelict at the time - in July 2012....
"ZEITGEIST - AFRAID OF D TRUTH" |
I found this on Wellington Road in August 2012, obviously a comment on the ESM, or European Stability Mechanism, which was approved in Ireland by a referendum at the end of May 2012...
"EUROPEAN STUPIDITY MECHANISM - YES" |
I took this picture of a "ballot bin" at St. Patrick's Place in July 2012....
"LITTER BALLOT BOX" |
These are some contributions I found on walls around Sullivan's Quay in June 2012....
"WATCHING T.V. CAUSES CANCER" |
"I WONDER WHY CAVEVEMEN DID THIS?" |
"THE BEGINNING OF THE END" |
I found this one off the White Street car park in August 2012.
"I will never forget, I will never regret, I will live my life" |
I found these last two items on Richmond Hill in September 2012.
"RELIGION IS FOR OLD PEOPLE ONLY" |
"AS the ASS FALLS OUT OF WOURLD CAPITALISM SICK PEOPLE PAINT LIKE MAD" |
