Tassie throw up culture is vastly different to Melbourne. Throw-ups often last for years regardless of the skill or notoriety of the writer. Tasmania is a fascinating place for a case study of graffiti. The pre-internet era would have potentially shown an independent scene with no strings attached to mainland. Artists develop styles isolated to tassie, with a fresh perspective on graffiti. The scene is an intriguing graffiti experiment, constantly evolving in unexpected ways.
A grassroots interpretation of graffiti and overlooked culture in neglected urban landscapes.

Hobart's Garbage Graff
On the road to the South Hobart tip is this little beauty. This garbage truck has been smashed by graff. Graffiti is always evolving and new frontiers are being pushed regularly. This is the first bombed garbage truck that I've seen.
