Looks like Biancoshock is feeling a little nostalgic for his wall-hopping days with this simple ladder made of aerosol paint cans. When talking about the graffiti and Street Art scene it is often an overlooked fact that usually a career of hopping walls and roofs and trains is limited – sort of like a pro-basketball player or dancer.

“I position this ladder outside the wall that surrounds a historic train yard,” the Italian conceptual Street Artist tells us of this ladder in Milan. Even though his work has changed since those early graffiti days, he looks back to it and re-examines it, as well as himself.
“After 14 years I returned to the place where all began. Looking at this wall I visualized what allowed me to climb over that wall without fear of the consequences, without wondering whether it was right or wrong, if it was art or just adrenaline.”
