Scottish artist, Robert Montgomeryis lighting up the urban art scene with his new form of graffiti. Montgomery installs his work in urban locations all over and sometimes lights his words on fire afterwords. His words are always elegant and simple however always leave a lasting impression.
In a recent interview with Interview Magazine, Montgomery stated
I started to do my own poems on the sides of buses and on walls with spray paint. Obviously my own work comes from a conceptual art tradition, but I love the graffiti artists, and I feel spiritually closer to them than to most contemporary art; they make the city a free space of diverse voices.
Art lovers of all types are sure to enjoy Montgomery’s work if they are ever lucky enough to stumble upon it.
