The Sign Guy a.k.a. The Dirty Bird

When I first moved to Tremont, I would wander around the neighborhood exploring boutiques, stores, and the parks.  I began seeing so many pieces of art suspended on telephone poles, on the tops of trash cans, and bolted onto trees.  It gave our surroundings great character and spotting a new one was always a thrill.

You could collect his art by swinging by a gallery during Art Walk or carrying around bolt cutters.

I own a couple of pieces of his and they are definitely going up immediately to remind me of this great eclectic, art community.

These pictures were taken at a gallery event:









All his materials are scavenged.
