Take one wall, let nine different graffiti artists go at it with one artist’s work going on top of the next, and the result is Time Bomb, a fascinating video that looks at the evolution of a wall as DMOTE, Kid Zoom, Ben Frost, Numskull, Roach, John Doe, Creon, Bennett and KissKiss each do their thing:
Infectious has always been the place to go for some of the best artist designed iPhone skins, iPod skins, car decals, adhesive wall art and laptop art around, and now they’re the place to go for custom skateboard decks as well thanks to a recent purchase of Popdeck, the former skate deck champion.
