Bearbeitungshinweis

  • "Murals (writing)" in the context of graffiti writing refers to large-scale works that cover a significant portion, if not all, of a wall or surface. Unlike street art murals, which are primarily focused on figurative elements or objects, murals in graffiti writing are predominantly text-focused. These works often feature stylised lettering and typography, showcasing the graffitist's skill in creating complex, large-scale text designs. The text in these murals can range from tags and pseudonyms to phrases, messages, or even full sentences. Murals in graffiti writing can be spontaneous or planned, and like other forms of graffiti, they can be unsanctioned or commissioned. They are a prominent feature of the graffiti-scape, reflecting the importance of text and lettering in graffiti culture.
