Phibs, China Heights, 4 September 2008.

Before The Americas.

I live in an area of Sydney where my council feels compelled to publish this little gem.

Ran into S on my way to get my haircut. How did he know?

Philips and Steve.

This is the original Free Hugs guy. He has had 10 million hits on YouTube, traveled around the world and been invited on Oprah because of his hugs. I've seen his sign copied by Japanese kids in Shabuya. Incredible.

At China Heights they were installing a show for Phibs. One of the most prolific street artist in Australia. I first began seeing his work around Newtown over 15 years ago.

Life size Shamoo.

Then I walked up to the ACP to see Richard Simpkin's show, Richard and Famous.

The show is about Richard's 20 year obsession with getting his photo taken with celebrities. The project is incredible.

Respect.

Richard's mother told us this isn't even a quarter of Richard's collection.

Brickwood.

Everywhere.

This is the Avatar show at the ACP.

The second one from the left, I photographed it at an APEC rally once.

Joe and Conor. This is when Conor told us about his obsession with skate mags.

Monster Children.

DJ Dog.

Fair dinkum.
