New Graffiti Job at Centre-Fuge Trailer on 1st Street
Mother Nature cooperated nicely this weekend, bestowing the perfect weather for some street painting. From morning to evening on Saturday and Sunday, Pebbles Russell and Jonathan Neville of Centre-Fuge ushered in the new wave of artwork at the semi-permanent DOT trailer on East First Street.

The gang of artists for Cycle 2 – Claw Money, Eiknarf, Julius Klein, Kenny Rodriguez and Yuri Velez – whitewashed and re-branded three of the four trailer exposures. Our favorite is the action-packed collaborative piece by Mastro and Ben Angotti on the northern side. As of dusk yesterday, much of the work was complete, however, we hear that final touch-up detail will continue today.

In a little bit of backtracking, Pebbles told us that the process for permission to paint was surprisingly easy sailing. Community Board 3 was all for it, and the DOT couldn’t get them in there quick enough. Thus far, response to the Cetre-Fuge project has been nothing less than positive.

Cycle 2 will run through mid-May, at which point the new guard of replacements arrives. Speaking of which, if you’d like to be involved in Cycle 3, send proposals to Centre-fuge by April 13.
