The artist of this painting has used realist colours to portray the focal point of this piece which I feel really grabs the viewers attention. I also like the use of bright colours used in the background of this as I feel it makes it look more like street art and graffiti instead of a piece portraying a message.
I like how the artist has used contrast between the street art and the internet pop up as I feel its feel thought of and clever and really makes the viewer think about the piece.
The shapes of the painting are typical street art/graffiti shapes, in which you would expect a piece of graffiti to look like.
I think this piece represents that the internet and the part it plays in society is becoming so large that it is starting to block out how people view the world, or in fact actually viewing it at all. I think that it is trying to show that people are so absorbed into their own phones/laptops/tablets or other forms of digital devices that we are missing out on viewing the world. Therefore the internet pop up is blocking us from seeing the full piece of art because we do not view the world fully.
I like this piece as I think it is clever how it is designed and that it is displayed on a public wall so people can view it and interpret it in their own way.
I feel this painting is a rebellious dig at the stereotypical view in society of homeless individuals. I feel when people see a homeless person asking for spare change they give a negative attitude towards them
