Art: Finally found Banksy….

After finally seeing his fantastic documentary, Exit Through the Gift Shop, I decided to track down one of the pieces of work that the street artist had painted for Toronto.

This is suspected to be the last surviving piece in the city. It is located around Church and Esplanade. It is much smaller than I imagined it to be and has been covered in safety glass to stop others from defacing it. A couple of, what I assume to be fans, have left their own work next to Banksy’s. Whether this is to use his work to help launch theirs, or simply just to place their own creativity next to someone’s that they admire, will remain a secret.

I know that many Torontonians would love for Banksy to return to add more of his work.

To wave is to say “Hello”.

Greetings Webventurers,

The purpose of this publication is to document and share the experience of life in an urban setting. A team of highly trained humans will do their best to define what it takes for an individual to exist in a city, and more importantly explain why our city can’t exist without these individuals. By sharing what is important to them about life in their city of choice, Toronto, the humans hope to do nothing more than brighten your day.

forever waving,

The Torontonaut Cadets
