At this time of the year, most of our spare time is spent inside a air conditioned shopping centre, bustling to get the christmas shopping done.

If you are in Sydney and have time free before December 11th, get yourself to Cocaktoo Island and check out Outpost - Art from the Streets 
Picture
Presented by the Sydney Harbour Federation Trust and aMBUSH gallery, Outpost is the perfect meeting of grungy dis-used industrialism and contemporary street art of the highest calibre. 
Picture
What I love about this project is it creates a defining line between what most people know as graffiti or tagiing - the ugly calling card of some, and street art.
Picture
And art is exactly what it is. These are our modern day contemporary artists. Not hindered by galleries, education or status, these artists have used the streets as their canvas, creating images which are breathtaking and cutting edge.
Picture
Street artists are our present day avant-garde. Pushing boundaries, pushing social commentary and re-defining the 'norm'.

So tell me reader, are you a fan of street art?

    This is the story of two women in the big city. What we eat, what we see and everything in between
