Words Travel Fast, Downtown Miami Murals
Words Travel Fast was a public art project by PRIMARY Projects that explored the relationship between text, visual art, and geography. Artists were challenged to create murals using only words: twelve words or fewer, two colors, bold typography, and no references to religion or politics.
I had completely forgotten these photographs until I found them on an old iPhone. What I remembered immediately were the messages. They had a way of making you stop in the middle of a walk through Downtown and think for a moment before moving on.
