Underground with Koven: Notorious Adelaide graffiti artist inspired by the 'nanny state'

The illusive artist who goes by the name Koven has been writing his tag on structures and walls around the city since the mid 2000s.

He is perhaps one of the city's most recognised writers due to some audacious roll-ups (graffiti painted up high on buildings, often with rollers).

In more recent years, however, his tag has appeared in small stickers placed on street lights, stobie polls, poster walls and pubs.

The work, by street artist Lushsux, showed the first female U.S. Presidential nominee in a plunging American flag-printed swimsuit.

"The image was already a viral meme circulating around social media. I took it and blew it up on a wall in public," Lushsux told CNN Tuesday.
