So during my time in Taipei, I obviously had to go out and document the local street art scene. It was clear that there was a few 'hardcore' bombers who had most of Taipei City on lockdown. Those writers being; UDON, CHEK, HARSH and DABS. There was quite a lot of legal commisioned pieces in Taipei but also a lot of bombing too.
Whist in Taiwan, I got the chance to meet CHEK. He was a real inspiration with wise words that would stimulate any writer. I would ride of on my own around Taipei on my Fixed Gear for miles out of the city and just keep seeing CHEK tags all over. You know your a true bombing king when you got a capital city on lock down like CHEK has. Props to CHECK and the IVP family for there inspiration and networking.
I found that the Ximen area is where most of the decent graffiti is in Taipei.
I love DABS handstyle in this tag.
HARSH - a writer from California who has a large proportion of Taipei on lockdown.
CHEK - Taiwans most prolific bomber.
Love this rooftop throwie by CHEK.
City Marx Character
Writers are taking their paintings to roof top level in Taipei regularly.
