Fear Heads
by Troy on Oct.19, 2009
Last week, the 1AMSF blog pointed us to an insanely huge production (30′ x 45′) being erected on Golden Gate Avenue in the Tenderloin District.
The installation is titled “Fear Heads” and was created by artists Roman Cesario, Mitsu Overstreet, and Roberto Gonzalez as part of the current “Wonderland” artists series.
I woke up early on Saturday morning and decided to go photograph the completed masterpiece. As I started firing off shots, I quickly realized that my 17-35mm lens was just not wide enough to get all three characters in the same frame. So I went back again on Sunday morning with my 10-22mm lens; you can see the results above.
I’d like to add that 1AMSF is doing a amazing job promoting and curating street art and graffiti in The City — and at a time where the powers that be have waged an all out war on this beloved art form — I couldn’t be happier watching them progress.
