Editorial note

  • The "anti style (graffiti)" refers to a specific form of graffiti writing style that intentionally defies the conventional aesthetics and norms of graffiti. This style is often characterised by its raw, unpolished, and seemingly amateurish appearance, which is a deliberate choice by the graffitist. The anti style can be seen as a form of rebellion not only against societal norms but also against the established rules and standards within the graffiti community itself. It serves as a reminder that graffiti is, at its core, an act of defiance and individual expression.
