For some people graffiti wasn't intended to be beautiful. Someone once said graffiti is a response to "bad architecture" which I couldn't of agreed more. Cities are fucking depressing places. I can't spend to much time there otherwise I choke whether it be air pollution, traffic and noise (offense to all your senses). Jetso Peezor are amongst the most notorious bombers with there distinctive throw-up dominating the cities inner- suburbs.
A grassroots interpretation of graffiti and overlooked culture in neglected urban landscapes.

Graffiti profiles-Mister (Tas)
A couple of years ago Launceston graffiti artist Mister (MR) took the graffiti community by surprise. This guy's tag was turning up on almost every street corner in the city. The unique tag even turned up on the top of the old grain silos that overlook the city, gaining maximum publicity and notoriety. Mister was also probably one of the few graff artists from Launnie who diversified their art using wheat-pastes and other imagery like a barcode and the 8 ball alongside a tag. Because he was so prolific in his active years he has left behind a legacy and encouraged others to do so.
