Hailing from Melbourne, Australia, Buff Diss is a non-traditional “street artist.” Instead of wielding spray paint and markers, Buff Diss’s tool of choice is masking tape. His love of traditional graffiti led him to see the city as canvas and paved the way for his unique style of art.





Since the tape is removed so easily, he’s stumped government officials from city to city and Buff Diss “enjoys the confusion it creates for them.” He enjoys the tactile interaction with architecture, city streets and derelict buildings – keep your eyes peeled for his masking tape pieces.

Hip Hop meets Wallstreet, but it's still Street.

Budapest

Japan

Dubai

Switzerland

Australia

Canada

Despite the different geographical and political landscapes of these countries, what do they all have in common? and what thread weaves through those similarities in an almost effortless way? LOOK...All of these countries have poor and disenfranchised peoples living within their borders, and nothing has electrified their youth across all racial and religious boundaries more then HIP HOP.



No other music genre transcends a subculture and then splashes into the mainstream as effectively as Hip Hop culture does. Hip Hop acts as the language of the oppressed masses expressing itself in multiple forms depending on the artist. No other artform within music uses the poetic structure of rhyming and engenders within it messages that can either make you laugh or make you mad, it is this difference within the music genres that keep Hip Hop around as a relevant musical form for many years to come.




Its here to stay...
