Stencil Art

I really love stencil art [Sometimes called Gorilla art]. One of the things I love about it is that almost anyone with imagination can do it! [Learn how to]. Also a lot of stencil art you see on the street has a political or at least a thought providing theme.

A few ideas to do with stencil at:

Get a group to stencil a wall at your building to a theme [justice, grace etc].

Do an outside wall with a modern day biblical scene using stencil images from modern day life, how about a old lady with shopping bags at the foot of the cross [Mary]. How about a typical modern day prostitute image being judged by religious leaders, talking to a modern day 30 something Jesus [John 8:7]. Basically how would the gospel stories look modern day and then stencil them out.

I think that this is an amazing piece of art: http://www.banksy.co.uk/manifesto/index.html
