"Tiger Mural" 2011, Artist: Dan Plasma, An American Visual Artist, Pica Pica Restaurant, Valencia Street and 15th Street, San Francisco, California
|
Dan Plasma drew a tiger mural on this wall.
Over time, other artists added to and covered it up.
Dan Plasma returned and turned the cluttered mural into a war piece against the interlopers.
|
The mural was painted on the side of the Pica Pica Restaurant and faced 15th Street.
It was difficult to photograph because it was partly hidden behind parked cars.
The mural itself was composed of many conflicting styles.
|
The leftmost part of the mural was in more of a graffiti-like style. That part rambled along the wall
and under a series of windows.
|
A signature was painted along the top of the mural. It read:
|
Another signature was located in the lower right portion of the mural. It said, "Persue."
|
Flowers and skulls decorated the wall just below the feet of the tiger.
|
A closer view of the tiger's face. It looked fierce and powerful.
|
A hammerhead shark swam just above the sidewalk and carried a blue combination spear and axe.
|
Another shark swam above the hammerhead. This upper shark wore sunglasses and a lip ring.
Its mouth was open and ready to eat a glowing insect.
|
A soft-shelled turtle swam near the tail of the upper shark. Just over the tail of the shark was the
word, "Bye."
|
A bald ball-like creature rose from green smoke and carried a knife. That creature had wide
eyes and and stitched shut mouth. It appeared to be ready to stab the tiger.
