- Adam5100, Image from The Heart vs the Mind in a Fight to the Finish
The graffiti artist Adam5100 may have started out bombing derelict sections of Albuquerque, New Mexico, but he's brushed up on his painting and printmaking at CCA and now appears in gallery shows around the Bay Area. But even with art-world cred, he hasn't let go of his tagger name or can. Breaking down photos into as many as nine layers by color and tone, he carves each into a stencil, lays down the darkest areas of the canvas first, and builds up to the lightest. The blurred and muted lines of his stencil work create photo-realistic snapshots of abandoned buildings and lightless air shafts — turns out, he still focuses on the sadder part of town.
