Re: "The Art of Graffitti Writing"
The pictures obviously took a lot of time to produce so I would say that the owner of the wall was well aware of what was going on so I would say that yes it was commissioned.
I can express how I feel by writing those feelings down, or I could write a poem, or a song. I could express myself in all those forms so should I stop writing songs just because I could express myself through prose instead?
"I learn, I go to school" - the mural would seem to be an expression of pride in oneself and self-belief that one can escape the poverty of the ghetto.
