A man walks towards the camera off to the left in a photo in a trail scene in the fall season. A neon sign in the middle of the path reads “You still haven’t met all of the people who are going to love you”

Streetartwall. An installation of silver balloon letters has been mounted on a red brick house wall. The inflated letters form a written sentence: "When a clown moves into a palace he doesn't become a king the palace becomes a circus" (and: Turkish Proverb). USA, another 4 years... You can guess who is meant. Info: Michael James Schneider aka BLCKSMTH is a writer and multimedia artist. He makes art installations, often out of balloons on a house wall, with profound messages. His viral balloon word art installations and photos are often also personal narratives about self-doubt and everyday comedy.
