Wall

If there was a wall, free of Graffiti, would you leave your Tag on it?

Re: Wall

We have a bridge and wall that is legal to graffiti. Sometimes messages stay up for a day, sometimes it's a week, but invariably it's painted over in short order.

People have used it to raise awareness of an issue, propose marriage, celebrate a victory, or just paint something unusual or beautiful. From time-to-time, the city power washes it to remove the paint. It's considered iconic now.

Look how many layers were exposed when it was sprayed continuously in one spot. The oval is about 8 inches across and every ring represents a time in which the bridge was painted.

Graffiti is futile.

Data needs a good spray job.

Re: Wall

No one would mind graffiti on the wall, if it was done by Banksy!

Erm - That's not what I had in mind. How to help youngsters, confused, bemused and in need of help...........expressionism in art could help.
