Editorial note

  • "Outlines" in the context of graffiti refers to the initial lines or contours that a graffitist uses to define the shape and structure of their work. These lines serve as a guide for the graffitist, helping them to plan the layout and composition of the graffiti before adding colour, shading, and other details. Outlines are a crucial part of the graffiti creation process, providing the foundation upon which the rest of the work is built. They are typically drawn using a contrasting colour to the fill-ins, helping to distinguish the individual elements of the graffiti and enhancing its visual impact. Outlines can vary in thickness and style, reflecting the graffitist's unique approach and the specific requirements of the work. They contribute to the overall aesthetic of the graffiti, playing a key role in defining its form and structure.
