Spotted this bit of public street art in Newcastle (Australia) recently. Rather ingeniously created using plastic stencils and high pressure water jets, the image is created not by adding, but by (selectively) removing grime and algae from a concrete retaining wall. For more info and images of this and another site, see http://cleanart.info/ . It’s a shame that at least while I was there the site of the chair piece was fenced off and a construction zone.

Cool project! The images look ancient and ghostly. I wonder how they will look over time?
