(UrbanMedium's CheTrooper sticker)
After graduating high school in 2006, I was soon beguiled by street art. Cleverly crafted messages, neatly warps in a cryptic allure, while on display for the world to see. Or in some cases, its just a facet for promotional purposes, with no additional connotation; but I'm not referring to the latter. Around that time though, Atlanta art studio, Foundation One, was opening an exhibit for UrbanMedium (the incarnation of street artists Derek Fridman and Heather Alexander), who seemed pretty omnipresent at the time. With CheTrooper popping up more frequent than an annoying Norton antivirus software update, and I loved. UrbanMedium seemed to be the perfect vehicle to boost Atlanta's rep on a globe scale, but they kind of just... Vanished!
I wish I could come to a sensible consolations or even a feasible resolution for the lack there of... but I guess their just busy or some shit. Even if there are no upcoming projects in the works, UrbanMedium still has a few niknaks for sell in their online store.
