When I started the UrbanArtistry Presents... film series the idea was to create a fun event that could bring together the local Street art and graffiti community. After such a long period without regular events i feel we've missed the opportunity to meet up and spend time with like minded individuals. With each screening the group grows but nothing helps more than word of mouth, if theres anyone you think might be interested in what we're doing, please share the website or our socials, it really does help.
This months feature is Spiritual Letters - The Art Of Mr Paradox Paradise.
The documentary takes us behind the scenes, as the Berlin based artist produces his columns of red and blue graffiti across the city’s skyline, from the rooftops, to the backstreets, Spiritual Letters follows the secretive Paradox as he picks locks, abseils from buildings and rides atop of the U-Bahn, offering a glimpse of the philosophy and practicalities of an artist working beyond the limits of the law.
I've also always wanted to be able to showcase local and independent film makers alongside the more well established names. Hopefully giving them the opportunity to show their films on the big screen.
This month brings one such opportunity, before the main feature will be screening a short mini documentary from Sheffield based videographer @aidan.joseph
Aidan will be in attendance to introduce his newly released mini doc " Marcus Method "
Aidan says "This short documentary offers a glimpse into the creative process, fundamental obstacles and human nature that influences Marcus's Projects"
Anyone that knows me I've been a big fan of Marcus's work for a long time so its great to have a small peak behind the scenes.
If you would like to join us on the night, tickets are available from www.urbanartistry.co.uk/whats-on
