I’ve been meaning to post this one for a while, I found it on a door on the border between the Raval and Poble Sec. A few days after what would have been Jimi’s 70th birthday seems as good a time as any. While I was taking this photo a few older men from the neighborhood were clearly discussing my motives. I like to think that Hendrix would have enjoyed this tribute in an anonymous corner of Barcelona on an aluminum door covered in the chaos of tags fighting for recognition.
Would make a great album cover. I rediscovered Axis Bold as Love recently, seems so brilliant second time round. Love the blog…
Thanks! I’ve actually seen this stencil in a number of different settings, but this one was the most appealing. I may have to do some re-discovering myself.
