Instamoods by SiG 2012

There is a little ongoing project I called simply ‘moods’ that you can find either on my FB page or on Statigram; fleeting moments from the daily path of life fantastic & reality in technicolor.

The "lits" by SiG 2012, 50x50cm mixed media on canvas

The name ‘lits’ simply means ‘the lisbon trails’ and it refers directly back to the very origin of the pieces, as well as being part of the “trail” of street art LiT follows and promotes. The “lits” are part of a joint venture between Lisbon-based urban photographer and me to convey and re-evaluate street art through the prism of our own experiences during the “creation” period back in April 2012. Among the goals of the LiT project is not only to document street art but also to interpret and re-interpret it in the process.

I have finally added an IG feed to my workflow. It’s meant to be more personal stuff, along with a new “street moods” series and also just sharing other people’s great pieces out there. You can find the online version of the feed on Statigram or look for the tag #silenceisgrand directly on IG. Feel free to follow! ;-)

Lisboa Noir Revisited © 2010 peter a. mankowski

The old urban photo series I did in 2009/10 and that was shown in Lisbon in 2011 is now available for viewing right here. The series depicts Lisbon through its facades, with its distinct graffiti and street art; a decay but also rich in detail and with considerable warmth.
