Editorial note

  • "Priming" in the context of graffiti refers to the technique of preparing the background surface where a graffito will be created. This involves applying a base layer of paint to create a clean, evenly coloured background. The purpose of priming is to enhance the vibrancy of the colours that will be applied on top and to ensure a smoother application of subsequent layers of paint. It also helps to cover any existing marks or irregularities on the surface, providing a 'blank canvas' for the graffitist. This technique is commonly used in graffiti and is an essential step in the creation of larger works or pieces.
