It appears that a day after my previous graffiti blog last Sunday that a nascent Mondrian, in the early stages of development as an abstract artist, has overwritten graffiti on the same wall. And in a hat-tipping reference to the self referential nature of the previous graffiti they have written 'wet paint' on the pavement. Clever stuff.
Clearly it wasn't an effort to make the wall look better as they didn't paint over the peeling or dirty areas. Perhaps this is a reference to the nature of art, art highlighting the difference between our context of reality and that of the perfection of geometric designs, a juxtaposition directly related by its appearance on the imperfect façade.
Although it would have been better if they'd used a decent straight-edge.
