Lock it Up


Locker art work (shown above) by Matt Gazmen, Photos by Valerie Graham



The lockers in the Art Department of building FA4 are not ordinary lockers. The heavy smell of spray paint and creativity meet you at the door of the building before you even enter the locker room.











The art department locker room is covered in every spray painted picture and scrawled out witty saying or quote imaginable.

You cannot find one clean surface in the locker room because the windows, doors, ceilings, lights, lockers and windows have all been covered in spray painted art.













“It’s not too hard to find your locker” says senior Art major Alexandra Iskander. “I sort of find mine by counting or remembering what’s painted on or near it.”
































Art Major Matt Gazmen said, “It’s more just for fun to paint the locker room. This space and every surface in here is an open canvas. And the teachers and administrators don’t care….well, they do care, but I’m sure they just look the other way.”
