The Wall

Blanco Ferreira, Ana Clara

Graffiti is not only a way of art but it is also a way of expressing yourself. Now, the question is what is expressed on the paintings? Well, it is always related to the artists and their daily lives. Everything they have lived and are living – their memories, experiences and subconscious emotions and feelings. Those are the things that are revealed through graffiti.

As we said, there are many things that are wanted to be expressed by graffiti. For example, all the things involve with our dreams. On the walls, we can find, everyone’s ambitions, wishes, hopes, but we can also find the things we are afraid of, and everything we been through. And this is shown at each graffiti painting.
