You might notice there are no ads on allthoseshapes. Keeping it ad-free so as not to be hypocritical. Damn poster boys steal heaps of art/graff walls and never give them back. allthoseshapes is not a business and needs a little help so now we’ve added a donate button. Fragments and Modulations the two follow up street art books were meant to be out by now but seeing as they are self funded have not been possible due to lack of funds.
If we’ve helped you get artists for your project or youre an artist who has scored projects via allthoseshapes and you can spare some coin, please do; If you like what allthoseshapes does and want to help us keep going, yeah please do! If you want to sell copies of figment at your event or in your shop, please let us know!
