Anyone else notice the "Earth Crisis" billboard on I-95 near Rockledge?

I saw it and was thinking that Earth Crisis, the hardcore band, had gotten extremely classy and organized with their marketing, so I decided to Google it.

Turns out Shepard Fairey, of Obey and Exit Through the Giftshop fame, has been visiting Central Florida and leaving some gifts on our billboards, including one here in Brevard County.

Pretty cool.

The artwork of Shepard Fairey/Obey Giant has begun to pop up around Orlando on billboards owned by Outfront Media. Fairey created the iconic Obama "Hope" poster. This piece uses colors and art from Fairey's 2015 Paris show Earth Crisis. The show hung at the Eiffel Tower. It is an artistic gesture for Paris as the host of the COP21 United Nations Conference on Climate Change.
