The film RASH, offers a rare insight into graffiti artists’ world view.
RASH is a contemporary story of modern urban Australia and the artists making it a living host for illegal artwork called ‘street art’. This film explores the cultural value of unsanctioned public art, and graffiti’s contribution to a very public dialogue.
The images above have been taken from the streets of Melbourne, which has become an attractive place for both local and
visiting graffiti artists who arrive from interstate and overseas to leave their mark via bill posters, stencils, and performance to broadcast their under represented views.
RASH conveys the commitment, ideals and beliefs demonstrated in a thriving alternative art practice.
These artists bang away at the community conscience by sticking this artwork right in the public eye.
The spirit of rebellion is being channelled into street art and these visual conversations are spreading across the walls of Melbourne.
