you will find this collaborative 2010 living walls mural along dekalb avenue on the side of studio nine hundred. we drive on dekalb quite a bit, so this was one of the first murals that brought our attention to the non-profit. the walls were painted by street artists swampy (oakland, ca), gaia (baltimore, md) & greg mike (atlanta).

gaia & greg mike have painted numerous other living walls murals and swampy also painted a collaborative mural with doodles near the eyedrum during the 2010 campaign, which is also great!

in celebration of the 2012 living walls conference, i’m going to post some of the murals that kicked off the first conference back in 2010. these are some of the earliest living walls conference murals that went up around eyedrum. the artists included jason kofke (atlanta), greg mike (atlanta), doodles (oakland), swampy (oakland), faber (lima, peru) & others.

i really like faber mural and the doodles/swampy collaborative piece. the jason kofke painting also looks familiar, the airplanes are reminiscent of his decatur mural we wrote about a few months ago.

many of these artists have done other murals for living walls, so be sure to check out our previous coverage to see more of their work.

more to follow!

here is another living walls mural in kirkwood that’s very close to our house! it’s by atlanta-based artist/designer greg mike, whose work can be found all around town, especially his loudmouf design. he also makes these large & small mad cans, which are fun.

greg’s kirkwood mural is great, we are excited to have such cool street art in our neighborhood! i have yet to drive by when that yellow van wasn’t parked in front though, so i don’t have any photos of the full mural. you can check out the whole design here while i wait for a photo opportunity.

here is a post we did a couple of years ago with some photos of greg’s work near the eyedrum. little did we know it was work he did for the 2010 living walls conference.
