Laguna and Haight Streets
Love in the Lower Haight
Haight Street Side
This piece is part of the Love in the Lower Haight Project, it is a collaboration between GATS, Dead Eyes and RAS Terms.
GATS (Graffiti Against The System) “GATS is one of the West Coast’s most prolific and rampant graffiti artists. Their iconic characters litter the landscape from coast to coast and have been spotted in over half a dozen different countries around the world.”
He was the focus of a video that I have found to be one of the best produced regarding the subject. It is 9 minutes long with some rather strong language, but I am including here because it is truly worth watching.
RAS Terms is also in the video for a brief moment. Ras Terms was born and raised in Miami. As part of the BSK and FS crews he was a pivotal figure in the Miami graffiti scene. Terms is a gifted illustrator and painter who has provided many images for the Rastafarian community. Since his arrival in the Bay Area he has established himself as a character graffiti artist and has lent his talents to serve the community.
