Description:
St. Ali is the St Jerome's of the south these days - but don't let that put you off. Aside from the name association and the Cheers-esque drop-in factor, they are way more serious about their coffee and maintain clean, functional bathroom facilities. On top of all that, they've only gone and organised their own laneway party with live mural painting, DJs, BBQ and beer.

Miso is quite a girl. Out and about sticking it to the man all night, defacing the streets of our fair city, then back to the studio all day making more art, thinking about what it was like back in Kharkov where she's from, painstakingly recreating her Eastern European homeland using only paper, fabric and wood.

Style Wars
People get so uppity about graffiti. They are cool with bovines with pixellated genitals on billboards, but as soon as they see a tag on a bench, it's the end of the world. I always thought I was above all that, until some guy spray-painted my dad's fence and I was confronted with my own hypocrisy.
Style Wars delves into this subject and illuminates it in a well-rounded way that has never been topped since its release in 1983.
