graffiti burner

Graffiti burner street art photographs found in the city of Toronto. They have very distinctive style and tend to look like they are in 3D form with layers.

When I first started to take pictures of these I will admit that I wasn’t that fond of them. After I got to understand them I like them quite a lot. Some artists do these exclusively while other do these and other types of murals.

They are made to appear as if they are a literally ‘burning’ out of the wall. I’ve only even seen one being created and that was when last summer I found Vizla Bacon working in the back alley with his dog at his side.

Its a very interesting process watching these being created. Some take several days depending on the complexity of the mural and the location. The one I saw was at ground level so there wasn’t a need for any ladders.
