Magic City: Asbestos
Asbestos is an Irish street artist whose moniker is taken from the carcinogenic material that, once identified, is considered an infestation. His “Lost” series of stickers and posters advertise random missing objects that are lost, but may not need to be found. Asbestos ventured into the medium of ice in 2006, when he, along with D*Face, created ice sculptures at the Ice Hotel in Sweden. He has exhibited at the Carmichael Gallery in Los Angeles, and Banksy invited him to participate in the Cans Festival in May 2008. His last show in Belfast, called Asbestos Boxing Club, focused on portraits of the boxers from Ligoniel Boxing Club, painted onto the flotsam found in the skips (dumpsters) of Belfast.
