As a street artist, I decided to fight back against the blight by creating my own humorous bandit signs and posting them up around the city. I am aware that I might be contributing to the blight as well, but I really hope that my signs make people realize how ridiculous these advertisers are and help them take pride in their community. And if that doesn’t work, I hope it makes them laugh.
