I walked down a lot of alleys behind Rue St. Laurent. They were covered in graffiti--some of it quite skilled and beautiful, some of it just messy and chaotic. Some of it seemed like art to me and some of it just seemed like vandalism. Love it or hate it, graffiti has become an urban cultural phenomenon that must be reckoned with.
"From the womb to the tomb, we as human beings have had the need to create and mark our territory. We need to let the rest of the world know we are here."------------Scape Martinez, author of Graff: the art and technique of Graffiti
