MESSAGE OF LOVE
400 x 300 cm
To a very loosely organized crew, that actually has no name, belong Rage, Piros and Brada. We will see their artworks on another Level when we move on to a discussion about characters, but here we are going to concentrate on their collaboration. There are two pieces, quite similar in rendering, that have received a similar number of views and they have both been done by Rage and Brada. Artworks by these three artists apparently comprise the biggest number of photos that are liked and commented upon in our primary selection. They hardly ever do traditional graffiti anymore but their very recognizable characters always seem to attract a lot of attention. With this crew, it is always hard to categorize what they do since they operate on the level of graffiti writers but, as has been mentioned, they mostly do characters. It would be easier to put them in the category of street art but they are not typical street artists; therefore, we are going to look at them as products of one of many avenues of the development of graffiti culture. Rage has been developing his Hero of the Streets character since 2011/12 and the mask on a person or a creature is something that gives it a very distinctive look. In the piece where both characters are wearing masks, one should pay attention to the speech balloons because they are filled with hearts. As Piros was with them while they were making it, we see his signature as well. And even though Piros did not contribute to this piece, the very same night they all went to another location in the city centre and made another set of artwork. From this selection, Piros’ tornado got a large number of likes as well. Apparently, that was a very productive night and obviously filled with inspiration as the multiple pieces got so many likes.
