Street Arts
We recently had the pleasure of meeting Alison Young a lecturer at the University of Melbourne and author of the Images To Live By blog. She is also the author of several books as well as numerous articles on the intersections of law, crime and culture. Her current research on street art is funded by the Australian Research Council and it was on her most recent trip to London that we caught up with her. Alongside her research Alison talked to us about a streetart book she was working on with three other Australian artists. Ghostpatrol and Miso, both well known Melbourne based Street artists and Timba Smits an art director, graphic designer and independent publisher of the Wooden Toy Quarterly.
