Public-spirited graffiti artist cleans up

Will this act of unwarranted street cleaning spawn copycats.

The Yorkshire graffiti artist known universally as Moose has what he believes is a cast-iron defence against accusations of urban vandalism.

He has devised a brand of street art which not only livens up city streets, but removes grime in the process. His method is to take any dirty inner-city wall or pavement, place a template over it and scrub the concrete clean, revealing an image as sharp as any spray paint which fades with time.

This is ingenious and I cannot believe that this will not start off a wave of 'graffiti cleaners' creating their art in our urbanscape. I look forward to the results.
