Editorial note
- "Cut outs" in the context of graffiti refer to a specific type of street art technique. This involves the creation of an image, character, or text on a piece of paper or similar material, which is then cut out and affixed to a wall or other surface. The process of creating a cut out allows for a high degree of precision and detail, as the graffitist can take their time to craft the image or text before it is placed in a public space. The use of cut outs is a popular technique among graffitists for several reasons. Firstly, it allows for the creation of complex and detailed images that might be difficult to achieve with traditional spray paint or marker techniques. Secondly, it enables the graffitist to create their work in a private space before placing it in a public location, reducing the risk of being caught in the act of creating graffiti.
