Robot

Saturday, June 9th, 2012

  • I’ve missed seeing good street art since leaving the colorful walls of Melbourne, so I was happy to bump into this spray paint robot the other day in the centre of Chiang Mai.

    I’ve been unable to find any information about the artist, probably because authorities here view street art as vandalism and the penalties for such a crime are harsh. I did find out that there are at least two other similar robots on Chiang Mai walls, but the artist does not sign or tag their work so identifying them, and giving them credit, is impossible. (The BB and Bscar tags were added later.)

    NEW FEATURE: If you’re curious where I, you can find me on a map. Simply click the ‘About Simon Jones’ link at the top of the website then click the ‘Find me on a map‘ link.
