"Street Art Coup D'état" (街头艺术联盟)
// BLURB //
It is said that in times of great peace, there must come turmoil—in times of great turmoil, there must come peace. We have stood idly by and enjoyed an era peace. We must move forward. We must embrace the turbulence and began the revolution! Courbet was realistic in his painting, but we must be realistic with the times. Break free the bonds of academic convention. The passing and failing by these arbitrary rules must end now. We are in a fragile state, yet we seem to take comfort in our absent-minded conformity. Together we can paint a new future. Together we can re-sculpt the surface and mend the broken bones of society. Join the Vhils Street Art Army today.
