AUSTIN MCMANUS is multi-talented: he is photographer, designer and publisher. He founded the web-based zine publishing and distribution collective, TheFlopBox.com in 2003. And he is involved in a wide range of creative projects and curates monthly art shows at Free Gold Watch Gallery in San Francisco

At the moment he showcases two photographic project “Journey into Darkness”  and “Partner in Crime” which documents first-time female taggers, challenging gender-based stereotypes about exactly who creates vandalism. Brilliant!
