Banksy is well known for his street artwork on properties as his canvas and his controversial public stunts. What does not get discussed enough is his other choices of mediums. Such as drawings, and installations. Dismaland One of his largest projects was a successful pop-up exhibition, Dismaland that showcased more than 50 artists he invited and his own new works. Dismaland was an inspired Disney theme but with the opposite attraction purpose, a heinous twist. After the exhibition, Banksy turned the project into a shelter for refugees. This large-scale installation successfully received popularity from the public. The takeaway message of this installation was to receive visitors' attention about socio-political issues; global warming, immigration, and fake news. Post-modem-ism Banksy adopted the term “Post modem-ism” (modernized term of post-modernism as a pun). The term is more technical compared to postmodernism. Postmodemism is the third wave of internet design, that is characterized by longer and more media-driven pages using Javascript and other advanced browser controls. The name itself came about that no modern-using computer completely loads a postmodern page. Another one of his successful projects is the Bristol City Museum or Banksy vs the Bristol Museum. Where Banksy gave his perspective on what he saw as the imagination of the world. His works are successful because of his widespread popularity.
