Dr.d aka Subvertiser (b. 1970's) is a British multi-disciplinary artist who is known for his satirical, provocative and timely street artworks, prints and billboard interventions. His process and familiarity with fly posting and billboard space began in the 90's when he worked the trade. Since 2000's he has mimicked official council, police and governmental street signage to subvert text and word play. Reduce Greed Now and Asylum Seekers ‘doctor’ governmental and social imagery and words as his pseudonym suggests (as well as it's basis in his 90's DJ name, Dr. Dolittle).
Dr.d has been a regular contributor to the Shangri-La area of Glastonbury for over a decade and continues to keep one foot in fly posting. Both works were originally included at the Shangri-Mart, Shangri-La, Glastonbury.
