Advertising In The Great Outdoors

If you’re like us, nothing affronts your sense of artistic integrity more than having members of the public deface advertising posted in public places. So imagine our outrage when we came across Jilly Ballistic's work on flikr

Ballistic’s oeuvre consists mainly of layering unsightly computer dialog boxes over exquisitely crafted outdoor ads. An act of hooliganism that will no doubt be cheered on by Philistines who fail to recognize real art when they see it.

"Move to trash" over the "That's My Boy" billboard is pretty funny though.
