A few months back me and my girlfriend decided to go check out Camp hero in Montauk. Camp Hero was once a World War II army base which includes a massive radio tower which attracts many who are are interested in the abandoned and decaying. I was mostly excited to see the radio tower up close for the first time as I have seen it from the water and beach for years. When we got there I found myself more intrigued by the amazing graffiti work that lined the bottom of the tower. There were so many colors and the detail was exceptional. Graffiti is something that intrigues me partially because ill never understand how well these artists paint with a can of spray paint and get such perfect lines but also because graffiti seems to always be changing, someone painting over somebody else's work partially creating collaborations whether thats what they intended to or not. I spent most of the time photographing the graffiti and some deer who stumbled upon us while we were there. I look forward to going back and seeing what new graffiti awaits.
