My Dog Sighs is a street artist from Portsmouth, UK. After 10 years of giving his art away for free as part of the now infamous Free Art Friday project (...), My Dog Sighs has recently found himself strapped in to a well-deserved meteoric rise.
My Dog Sighs's style is characterised by the combination of melancholic and often naive portraiture with the use of found materials including abandoned food cans; an unusual choice when considering traditional street art ideas of painting or pasted walls. Initially stemming from the desire to interact with the true public without causing permanent damage to public and private property this transient work is not concerned with permanence or mass audience, but a beautiful desire to communicate quietly with a single participant. Why cans? By recycling already ‘lost’ and abandoned materials, the cans add a layer of humanity and fragility echoing the solitary moment the 'finder' discovers this lost soul. - My Dog Sighs
