We're joined by Tyler from 'Tyler Street Art' on the broadcast. His identity remains anonymous, he goes by the pseudonym, 'Tyler', inspired by Edward Norton's menacing Alter ego played by Brad Pitt in David Fincher's fight club. This mask-clad crusader, one of India's most famous anonymous graffiti artists, wields his spray-paint cans and stencils to paint revolutionary art on what many call unconventional canvases. The dominant themes he works around are centered on the evils of extreme capitalism, corrupt governance and the widening class divide. What inspires his work? Is he anonymous due to exclusivity or fear? How does Tyler define patriotism? All this and more on the backlash he faces for making a solid statement and a sneak peak on what's next for him, in this exclusive interview.
