Self-Indulgence vs Subtexture
In this corner, we have Subtexture a.k.a. Chris ‘Smitty’ Smith – Greenpoint’s champion. For over 20 years, Smitty has been absorbing his neighborhood’s aesthetics, painting on signs and other found objects. His work is of the street and for the people.
In the other corner, from the Southside of Williamsburg, we have Self-Indulgence a.k.a. Mark Albright. Another artist who gets his inspiration from his Brooklyn neighborhood. His love of spray paint and stencils, mirror the street art he admires.
Smitty and Mark met at the Brooklyn Ale House over a decade ago. Both are members of the Maggot Brain art collective, of which Smitty is the founder. We would like to thank our neighbor, Sage for hosting our art show.
