"The Decapitator"

"Rad Fangorian guerilla art from The Decapitator, a UK-based street artist/culture-jammer known for graphically severing the heads displayed on major advertising media and reducing them to bloody, bony stumps.

His latest efforts include a foray into newsprint, having hijacked the London Paper’s back page Motorola ad and distributing it both by hand and via the distributor’s supply. The event was even documented for prosperity, here.

Originally found on either cpluv or ffffound, it’s seems the East London Decapitator’s work has been getting around."

There is a flickr dedicated to his subversions here

but guess who?





Something different when it comes to advert subversions anyway, I was getting kind of sick of so-called witty responses to advert tag lines. Keeps it playful, something consistent and takes the place of numerous words.
