Graffiti Art

Graffiti art is a visual art form created by applying images, lettering, or designs to public or semi-public surfaces, typically using spray paint, markers, or stencils. It emerged prominently from urban youth culture in cities like New York and Philadelphia in the 1960s-70s and became closely tied to hip-hop culture, evolving from simple tags into elaborate "pieces" and murals. Practitioners are drawn to its immediacy, public visibility, and role as a form of self-expression and social commentary, though it remains legally contentious when done without permission.
