Skywayway ventures further afield


This clever handmade office supply-based graffito was found in a short skyway between a parking ramp and the Carlson School of Management on the West Bank of the U of M. Some patient student, or student patient, spent hours carefully assembling a performance poster spelling out the word "smile" in multi-hued post-it notes on the glass of the skyway, centered above 10th Ave. so it would cheer up passing motorists. You are seeing it from the inside of the skyway, which reads reversed.

If you watched the Oscars tonight, you heard about a documentary about Banksy, the mysterious graffiti artist. Perhaps his film "Exit throught the gift shop" inspired this. The spirit of the disposable prank did give me a smile on a grey winter day.
