Dan Bergeron of Fauxreel Studios has been a massive presence in the Toronto street art scene for a while, and he's lent his talents to StreetScape's Living Space @ Regent Park project to brilliant effect. His giant wheatpased poster portraits of Regent Park residents are going up right and left, putting a human face on the architecture of Canada's oldest social housing project. This is just a small taste of what's to come when Living Space @ Regent Park opens (June 13-15--mark your calendars!), but already the most prominent street art blog in the world, Wooster Collective, has taken notice.
Check out the first few....
