This month we go through what is happening on both sides of the Atlantic with shows, dedication pieces, and new books from old school legends. There have been some tremendous film releases in the world of graffiti this month too, so of course those are highlighted as well.

3. LUSH in England
Another great video from Australian writer LUSH, shot in Brighton, England. He has been in London recently in preparation for a show, and has telling some truth on the streets of Shoreditch, the hip district of London.
2. HORFE's animation with ILoveDust.
This project has been going on for almost 18 months so it is a relief to see it online finally. Creative studio ILoveDust and HORFE hooked up to make this animation. HORFE spent weeks hand drawing each frame, to give the film the look he wanted. It is unusual to see such a successful creative company spend so much of their time working with a graffiti writer, so it nice to see such effort put in from both sides.
