Introducing: BALLOONHEAD

A short documentary on public & installation art. Some people work too hard & forget they're following a daily routine that is slowly killing them. BalloonHead represents that eager creative intensity that should be exploited but is often shunned & denied.
Follow me as I (try to) install a piece of art in the public hot spots of Los Angeles with something I call "BalloonHead Sightings". Most of the time I did not have a permit nor did I ask for permission. Should public art be removed depending on the content/message? Or does the content even matter?​

I know this post will be removed from this forum soon, but this is the most populated one right now and at least it'll gather some interest from its time.

Interesting little documentary. I found the reactions to be so interesting. Particularly the more"antagonistic" ones. When I look at BalloonHead though, he kind of terrifies me. Don't know what that says about me. Maybe I'm scared of balloons?

Now that's interesting. I've never really heard someone say they're frightened of him, except a couple of girls once said they found it creepy. Guessing it's because he's headless? But there's headless mannequins in almost every clothing store. Anyway, thanks for watching!

I like Balloonhead. Almost as much as the lost astronaut.

What's even cooler is that lifting BalloonHead up was Spidey's idea! Dude was improving all sorts of crazy cool stuff.

Why is Spidey and Cap taking Balloon Head to Hooters? I do hear they have great burgers there though.
