Editorial note

  • 'Getting up' in the context of graffiti refers to the process of gaining recognition or fame within the graffiti community. This term encapsulates the ambition of many graffitists to make their mark and establish their presence within the graffiti-scape. The process of 'getting up' often involves creating and displaying graffiti in numerous or highly visible locations, thereby increasing the visibility of the graffitist's work. It may also involve developing a distinctive style or signature that sets the graffitist's work apart from others. However, 'getting up' is not solely about visibility or quantity of work. It also involves earning the respect of peers within the graffiti community, often through demonstrating skill, creativity, and a commitment to the culture and ethos of graffiti.
