Graffiti and vines

Graffiti and vines

I normally like graffiti – but I’m not really thrilled by this expression of art. For me it’s a combination of the wrong canvas (face brick), the location (which was among the vineyards in Stellenbosch) and I guess the lack of originality that makes me a little ambivalent about the work.

How do you feel about artwork, and about graffiti in general?

    If graffiti could be contained on a particular wall (as public art?) perhaps, but I find it offensive because of the lack of respect for those who own the defaced property who have to, at their own expense, clean up the after the taggers.
