Often found hanging from power lines or melding with urban architecture, Above's site specific stencils, paintings, and installations push past the traditional expectations of graffiti. The evolution of his name from text to a symbol inspired him to explore less conventional media, leading to his trademark wooden mobiles. Whether subtle or massive, his pieces retain an innate sense of beauty through their dialogue with the surrounding environment. Refusing to show his work in galleries, Above has instead "toured" through Europe and North and South America to get his work up. Watch the interview from "The Run Up," available for the first time to the public for free, on Walrus TV.
