Even good looking shit is vandalism. A nice, colorful, sometimes well thought out arrangement of semi-haphazard vandalism.

 

any destruction is art to me. i almost get a hardon from car accidents.

 

its vandalism. i wreak havoc and create chaos, i dont want some faggot calling me an artist

 

exactly. i feel offended when someone asks if i'm an artist or calls me an artist.
it's like "damn, does it look like i wear fancy glasses and a scarf?"

 

you guys are fucked.....

graffiti is both, your fucking up peoples stuff, but making it look good as well. its clearly an art form, and stop stereotyping artists like that.

 

i like fuckin up shit. people's and the city's. but i dont fuckup peoples stuff unless they didnt have it commin to them u kno? like snitches shit. so im proud to call it vandalism. fuck you scene art fags

 

Innerbleeding and dred just wanna look cool on the internet. I call it pretty vandalism. Well, sometimes it's pretty, other times it's just ugly vandalism, but vandalism none-the-less.

 

yeah, if you people just want to fuck other peoples stuff up, why would you be on a graffiti website?

i mean.. you guys could be out doing stuff like this:

its illegal art .. we risk getting cought to express our selves .. it is what it is man

 

it's whatever you want it to be at the time, or a little of both. depends on if you feel destructive or creative

 

Legally speaking, its vandalism
Artistically speaking, its beautiful art and an expression
Culturally speaking, its a phenomenon... a pretty recent one too.
it all depends on what you're interested in... If you like fucking shit up, you would think in your head 'I'm a fucking bad ass vandal fuck art'... if you're an artist.. well you'd look at it as a form of expressing yourself...
If you're interested in recording it because it is a phenomenon, I mean, how many other cultures decided to write the same word 1000+ plus... and hundreds of people doing it concentrated all in one city... its phenomenal

 

dude its vandalism but i dont do it for its artistic values i do it to get back at the fucking government and the city and the fucking cops and to show how i fucking feel but no one listens to a fucking 16 year old kid so i do it my own way.

 

^^^^^^^
you do it to express your anger right? Guess what art is, that's right! A form of expression! You're a regular little monet aren't you.

 

We are all vandals you pig fuckers, some are just better vandals than others.

 

its art all tha way!!!! and vandalism is wat taggers do.......taggers scribble, writers make art................

 

ART is anything created with imagination and/or skill, graffiti is art, it may be vandalism, but its good vandalism

 

a writer cant be a writer with out tagging first

 

true that

its kinda sad when people can do peices, but cant lay down a tag

^^yup i think its both but i dont consider my self an artist cuz i cant do like complex pieces yet
