Hip, Edgy Urban Art (brought to you by the Clorox corporation)
The Robert C Levy Tunnel, better known in San Francisco as the Broadway Tunnel, is some serious urban tunnel, a little spooky to walk through, and an art canvas.
“Reverse Graffiti” is done by selectively cleaning parts of a dirty area to show designs / patterns / art, whatever you want to call it. It’s credited to Paul “Moose” Curtis who did this little project at the entrance to the Broadway Tunnel.
Interestingly enough, since only cleaning is involved reverse graffiti is often legal where regular graffiti would be illegal. This has attracted the attention of advertisers and, though it is conveniently omitted from the YouTube video, this was commissioned by Clorox to promote their Green Works line of ‘green’ cleaning products.
Moose actually seems like an interesting guy and anyone who can get money from a major corporation to do stuff that’s cool has my respect.
