The Stall

Bathroom stalls are the perfect place to create art or write a profound phrase. You are blocked from view of other people, and there are no cameras. You are free to do anything you want. The privacy of a stall often invites people who wouldn’t normally vandalize something to leave their mark on the wall.

Similar to the Road Signs piece, I am graffiti-ing on to an official-looking sign. With this piece, each sign has an arrow that points toward the camera, that the signs are talking about. This piece points out the camera, drawing attention to the eyes that watch us.

The whole point of graffiti is to go against authority and do stuff you’re not supposed to do. Road signs are a huge symbol of authority, and you are limited, and by graffiti-ing a word onto the sign that says the opposite of what the sign means, authority is being gone against.
