Artists from around the world and around the block are represented by a few walls full of adhesive art at Hoodride Bodega's "Sticker Phiends" show. Some of the pieces are actual printed stickers like the kind you use to peel off paper backs and slap on your Trapper Keeper. Other pieces are hand-drawn on mailing labels and other adhesive-backed packaging.
