The world famous American outdoor art exhibit space in Long Island City in Queens, New York, considered to be the world's premiere "graffiti mecca", where aerosol artists from around the globe painted colorful pieces on the walls of a 200,000-square-foot (19,000 m²) factory building. It was known as a place where New York’s graffiti artists and well known artists from all over the world to legally practice their craft. the location has served as a gathering spot and also drew in tourism for the last two decades.

Artist Spotlight: Tristan Eaton

POW! WOW! Hawaii x Versace  By: Tristan Eaton

 

 

 

This first series of post of "Artist Spotlight" will feature different artist's and their works from around the world that have inspired me. 

The first artist I will feature is an graffiti artist based out of California name Tristan Eaton. From the people who have transformed the walls of Kaka'ako into beautiful works of graffiti art and paintings, POW! WOW! Hawaii has teamed up with fashion house heavy weight Versace in creating a mural based on their iconic Medusa logo. Done by the skills of Tristan Eaton, it was all made possible as he did it justice with his own touch of flavor and with the support of Montana Cans spray paint. The process of this mural took five days to complete! If your a local in Honolulu, Hawaii and you haven't got the chance to peep this work of art yet, it is located at the old Comp USA building. To see more of Tristan Eaton's work, follow his instagram @tristaneaton

Enjoy!
