    So those traffic signal boxes in Temple Bar are to be covered in wrap around art work all because of graffiti taggers. According to RTE if the boxes weren't tagged this never would have happened. The writings on the wall I guess. More about it here

    Not a fan of that particualr artwork (a bit tonally bland for my liking). What did you think of the artowrk yourself?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Thought most of what they showed on the website was crap. I'd like to see Mase' one. If it's the character they link to then not really into it.

    Out of interrest, do you think the project has a future? Would you like to see it expanded?

    I'd like to see more genres included myself. Maybe some works done in the style of artists like Van Gogh, or Dali. Maybe even Vallejo (might riase a few too many blood pressures though!)
