Rowan Pybus, Faith47 and Inge Beckmann worked closely together to produce this short video piece called “Epitaph”. The video is an exploration of lost spaces entered through sounds and images to reveal the echoes of empty rooms, flakes of paint, swollen curves, fragile lines, stories hidden in the flat colors broken apart by wood and steel.
We were also fortunate enough to get the chance to interview Faith47 awhile back.

Amazing!
Faith47 proving why she is one of the best and one of the most talented artists, today. This is what (I feel) graffiti is all about; human expression!! Street cred and “crew love” are okay, if you’re looking at this culture from a small scale prospective … but there has to be more to this culture than personal vanity. This artform, which is more lively than the traditionally accepted forms of art – things often found in galleries and museums- MUST NOT be confined to the stereotypes being placed upon it by people outside of the culture. Graffiti means a lot of things to a lot of different people. I’m glad artists like Faith47 are willing to show that not only the depth of this genre, but also that of its contributors. to culture have depth as well. Give credit where it’s due. Salute Faith47!
