Q: Do you have any interesting behind-the-scenes stories about the making of this particular work?

A: When I first started this project I had no idea who any of the artists were, even though I lived on the Lower East Side and was surrounded by street art. At first it was difficult to figure out who made what and then to track down the artists that I wanted to interview. A few artists I contacted did not want to be interviewed and most were wary about being filmed putting up their work. But everyone I did interview was incredibly articulate, generous with their time, and also helpful. Several artists put me in touch with other artists and slowly the whole thing came together.
