Editorial note

  • "Minimalism" in the context of graffiti refers to a style of graffiti writing that draws inspiration from the Minimalist art movement. This style is characterised by its simplicity, use of basic shapes and forms, and restrained colour palette. Minimalist graffiti emphasises the essentials of graffiti writing, often focusing on the structure and form of the letters rather than intricate designs or embellishments. It showcases the graffitist's ability to convey meaning and create impact through simplicity and reduction. While Minimalist graffiti is inspired by the Minimalist art movement, it is not the same. It exists within the unique cultural and aesthetic context of graffiti, and it reflects the graffitist's interpretation of Minimalist principles rather than a direct application of them.
