This video shows the artist MobiLenin using his MobiSpray art tool to paint buildings, airplanes, ships and other objects around the world. MobiLenin’s digital ephemeral art is about transforming a building or object so it acquires a new power to communicate with artist or viewer and become alive and of value on its own account.

The MobiSpray art is about engaging in space, bringing extra tension or play to challenge peoples assumptions about an object or place. Similar to the artist Christo who uses buildings and object from the environment to create ephemeral art by wrapping them up, MobiLenin uses buildings and objects to create highly ephemeral art by painting on them with light and his Mobile phone. MobiLenin offers his MobiSpray live action painting show to event organizers globally.

The third stop during the Mobispray Summer 2008 tour was in Jakobstad. We enjoyed staying in the city, cooked german ’spätzle’ (pasta type) and drank some good wine. When searching for a place to park the motorhome over night, I spotted this nice clean large house wall of the cities’ information centre.

Well this was again a perfect place to reahearse my art practise. Opening again the window of the motorhome and off I was, being happy seeing large art pieces emerge in front of me.

Luckily it was raining so it was darker than usually, since the midnight sun has started to make spray-painting more and more difficult the more north we were driving.
