The Trafo Box in Sandviken

+5

Description

 The trafo in Sandviken. 
 Not legal to paint. It is heritage stuff. It was tagged and tagged and tagged. The owner painted and painted and painted. Then they realized that it was better to make a deal with the can store on the other side of the road. This has become a wonderful working relationship between BKK (the el company) and Norge 1927 (the can store). Been so for years now. 

Norge 1927 is running who gets to paint one of the three walls. Only kings are allowed. Only writers and characters on this building. Content changes over time, but on average they might stay for 2 – 3 months. Here are some examples of what has been on them walls. 

If u wana paint - just contact the dues in the shop and u might get a permit. It’s so nice that u can paint in the middle of the day and no one will disturb u.

Started walking the streets back in 2015. This developed into shooting and documenting our streets. From there I dove into the scene becoming part of it. I developed the platform StreetArt Bergen (FB/STREETARTBERGEN.TRUE). A platform for documenting and organizing projects. By 2023 our projects have painted over 30K m2 of graffiti and street art in our turf. Largest single project was more than 13K m2.We don’t do tours nor merch. Good hunting in our turf.
