You know you are super cool artist when your art is not even referred to as art, but rather as interventions. Spanish artist SpY’s interventions are some of the boldest comments on society ever created.
Taking his street earned skills, and applying them to issues and environments across the board, SpY’s interventions are also just really cool. From replacing street signs with flowers to wrapping police cars in crime scene tape, this guy keeps it real.
