BONEYARD EXHIBITION - STREET ARTISTS TAKE ON A BIGGER CANVAS

Out in the middle of the vast Arizona desert, under the scorching sun, lies a graveyard for planes that are no longer in flight.  More than 4,000 ex-military planes are abandoned here as the desert proves to be a great place for storage due to its low humidity and lack of rainfall.  Artist Eric Firestone saw an opportunity. These planes provided a unique yet blank canvas for some his favorite artists, including Faile and Andrew Schoultz, to bring to life.  'The Boneyard project', has brought thirty of the world's best street artists together to bring 5 US Air force jets back to life through they're art.  The artists spent several days working on the planes which are now on display to the public at the Pima Air and Space museum, Tuscon, AZ until mid May.  Watch this video to learn more and see the amazing process the artists went through....
