Get home yesterday and the kids from across the way have drawn up a series of roads in chalk. It chimes with what I've been reading about - diagrams of one sort or another. Dubuffet returned to source. The combination of child writing and wobbly lines. In sharp contrast to the official markings of cycle path and one-way signs. The oldest boy wears a fluorescent yellow jacket in unconscious parody of police/traffic warden. He directs the traffic and warns of cars rounding the bend. A peculiar blend of street art and defiant graffiti: WE PLAY HERE. The kids reclaim the streets.
