The theme this week for images of Canberra is stencil art.

Shondy has sent in this great one (and many more available in the slideshow below).

If there’s a piece of stencil art that strikes a chord with you around town take a photo and send it in to images@the-riotact.com

Another entry from yesterday was this one by arthwollipot.

Can somebody tell me what genius decided to paint the trees on the back fences in the Woden area – no offense intended but it looked like the work of a 5yr old! and looks shite

Also ripping of Banksy – should be a crime, punishable by making them come up with an original idea 🙂

The trees on the fences were actually commissioned by the government to deter graffiti (really thought that one through)

PBO – of course I’m not referring to him as the creator of stencil art. My comment was directed toward the balloon girl example above. Credit where credit is due etc….

Local artist E.L.K is the shit. I wished I had the cash to buy one of his works!

Ummmm, Think about what you have typed and go and give yourself an uppercut. Banksy did not invent stencil grafitti, he is just one of the more popular artists who made a name for himself and made it more popular.

nice sickboy one there

these are great. is there any way for people to include locations? even just suburbs?

I’d rather not make it any easier for TAMS to hunt them down and paint over them.
