ART VS. JUNK

Mike McNeilly says he hopes his art will make people “aware of the individual’s power to change things” (“Urban Art,” Palm Latitudes, by Kathleen Moloney, April 19). The only thing his art has made me aware of is how incredibly ugly it is. He also claims: “We don’t need to junk this city up more than it is.” If you ask me, he is doing just that. The city would look better without his artwork plastered on every bus bench.
