An anonymous graffiti artist is modifying adverts across East London by gruesomely decapitating bodies within the ads. Not much is known about him, but his web-fame is growing...so much so he hit the front page of Reddit today.
It is suspected the work is a statement against the sheer volume of advertisements appearing in all modern cities, and is a way of turning the mass produced commercial art of the ad world into high art. Such art has gained quite a bit in popularity in recent years, and unsurprisingly so considering that it is estimated we see anywhere from 500 to 3000 commercial messages per day.
Another good example of similar work is The Pixelator.
