FINDING THE MAN IN BLACK





Discarded toys show up in strange places. I’ve found many down by the railroad tracks on Ohio Street. Were these toys part of a Happy Meal collection thrown out by a young ‘traveler’? Close to the discarded toy site was the massive Concrete Central grain elevator. Inside the elevator was a paint ball team happy to pose as urban warriors.  The toy, the team and the graffiti all came together in this “neighborhood in a box.”   You can see it and others in my space at the ECHO Art Fair this September 6 – 7, at the Central Library, downtown at One Lafayette Place in Buffalo.
