The Cape of Good Hope

Faith47-The Cape Of Good Hope from Rowan on Vimeo.

This video was shown in one of my classes this week. The South African artist, Faith47, is a famous for her graffiti and this piece was done on a buiding in a neighborhood near ours.

Just some background knowledge- city newspapers post headlines on light posts and poles. Faith47 collected these signs for a year and this is the art she created. 

One part of the video is REALLY strange and it is kind of long but overall what she created, while it is quite heavy, it is also quite interesting and a side of this city that, believe it or not, is easy to ignore.
