As I was roaming around my feeds on the web I came across a great piece on Wooster Collective. It is a collaboration with Vhils and JR down in LA. At first I was like, ok that is pretty rad... but after further investigation I noticed that the face is actually cut out of the wall. I haven't seen Vhils work before so I jumped over to his site and my jaw dropped. Such a great way to work with things that are already out there, turning old walls into art. Vhils is now one of UB's favorites, Good work.
This great photo above is from our friend Jeff Gros. This just popped up on his facebook the other day. He found some old polaroid film and decided to take some shots throughout the summer. The above image is one of my favorite shots and pretty much everything Unseen Beauty stands for. Check out Jeff's blog to see some of the adventures he goes on... Good stuff.

I was catching up the other day on the Wooster Collective page and they had a little thing of JERM IX. I took a look and was amazed, so simple but it really has some impact. Here is a little bio I snagged from his Blogger
JERM IX : jerm IX is a street artist, poet, emcee, and activist. he is also the CEO of Jerm Inc., a fake, non-existent company that specializes in urban thought provocation and public space reclamation. "jerm is micromanaging disturbing hyped up fantasies, he's a man of kin, a mannequin, he's manic and he's panicking..." he whispered over my shoulder as I sat down to write this bio. in the last 4 years, along with his wife ninja IX, he has pasted thousands of his annotated 'jermalism' messages, direct quotes, and scrolls around the city of Vancouver, Canada.
You can read more about him on his page. Take a look at a couple more of my favorite scrolls.

Been hooked on this site all day long... SpY
I randomly came across SpY from a little post on Upper Playground. They Titled him "The Spanish Banksy". the second I heard Banksy I was all eyes. I linked over to his site and it was all over after that. I caught myself all day scrolling through his well documented art work. I could go on and on about his work, his photography, his ideas. I strongly suggest you just sit back grab yourself a drink and sink into his work, you won't be disappointed.
I have put a couple of the shots I like after the jump.
