FIELD NOTES: We may not be the Daily Bugle, but Spiderman is still making headlines. Frequently seen skateboarding around town, our local Spiderman has been witnessed spinning webs approximately the size of Bellevue Park in Kensington Market. This tangled web he wove isn’t traditional graffiti—we see it more as urban intervention or an elaborate yarn bomb. The real question: is this an entertaining use of the space or an inconvenience to the park? Is Toronto Spiderman an eccentric gentleman having some innocent fun or a menace to the city? Is he a superhero or super-zero? Tune in next week, same spidey time, same spidey channel!

Once a week, Vandalist features some of the most interesting street art and graffiti from around Toronto. Find something great? Email [email protected].
