Durban Profiles: Skullboy
Skullboy is graphic designer (he tells the ladies he’s an artist – way to go playa!) and graffiti artist who’s put up some great work in Durban.
I believe that people don’t care about their cities because they don’t actually take their eyes off the road on their way to work and don’t look over their high walls when they get home. I do street art to add value to an area and hopefully cause people to take notice and appreciate the city they live in… and I dig being reminded of nights spent in the streets with my friends as I drive past my posters on the way to tech…

Roadsworth began painting the streets of Montreal in the fall of 2001. Initially motivated by a desire for more bike paths in the city and a questioning of “car culture” in general, he continued to develop a language around street markings and other elements of the urban landscape using a primarily stencil based technique. In the fall of 2004, Roadsworth was arrested for his nocturnal activities and charged with 53 counts of mischief. Despite the threat of heavy fines and a criminal record he received a relatively lenient sentence which he attributes in part to the public support he received subsequent to his arrest. Since that time, Roadsworth has received various commissions for his work and continues to be active in both visual art and music.

Hit the jump to see more street art from around the world.
Not just of walls (that would just be silly), but with stuff written on them.
Without love breath is just a clock ticking. Without breath love is just necrophilia.
Your life is in danger. Do not urinate. Do NOT urinate.
The pavement used to be our garden.
