“I first noticed the diverse and inventive graffiti scene in Toronto around 2007 after stumbling across Queen Street West’s infamous Graffiti Alley. Before then, I hadn’t really paid much attention to street art, but after my discovery I began the switch from shooting the odd piece here and there to more actively hunting for specific artists’ work and locations where clusters of murals existed. Since that transition, I’ve steadily made an effort to document these temporary artworks before their inevitable destruction at the hands of weather, taggers, and/or landowners who don’t appreciate such uninvited contributions to their properties.”
