Trainer Angel Strikes in Newcastle
I spotted this amazing piece of paste-up street art in the Ouseburn area of Newcastle yesterday. It’s called Trainer Angel and this was numbered #5, so there must be more. The really amazing thing about this installation was the Nike Air Max 1 glued to the wall 15ft off the ground!
The Trainer Angel had a QR code on it’s chest, so I scanned it and it sent me to the Trainer Angels home….heres the link www.trainerangel.com
I loved the digital interaction with a piece of art, very cool indeed!
ROA on the yard
In demand Belgian street artist ROA has been up at Hoults Yard, Newcastle painting one enormous wall!
This wall is on the end of our destination store (The Sneaker Lounge)
The piece is called “four horses of the apocalypse” and ROA worked for 3 days in wet and cold conditions, but he’s pulled it out of the bag…..it looks amazing!
Next time you visit The Sneaker Lounge, be sure to check it out.
There are more pictures on our facebook page – Sneaker Lounge “Art on the Yard” album
Props go out to the Unit 44 boys for setting up The White Walls Project. Burgerman & Kid Acne have done their pieces and Insa & Eine are next!
