Mark Jenkins' street art incorporates everything from dummies and mannequins to get people thinking. I have written about this guy before, and the street art he manages to create is nothing short of fantastic and perplexing.
Imagine walking through the city and seeing a bed in the middle of the street, with someone sleeping in it. In Mark Jenkins' street art, the person sleeping is a dummie, which draws plenty of attention and raises awareness for one of the city's biggest probnlems. It's a major artistic statement on the state of homeless people around the world.
