These are a couple photos that I’ve taken in the last month of graffiti. If i collect anything I collect pictures, like these, of graffiti. I will almost always go out of my way to take a picture of any graffiti, that I spot, as long as it catches my fancy. I do not claim to have any sort of consiuership when it come to the quality of graffiti, I simply claim to have an opinion of what it is I see around me. As a side note there is a sort of thrill that I get from taking these pictures. Sometimes to get these photos I must trespass on a closed parking lot, find a peephole in a fence, or walk down some dark alley. I must echo Walter Benjamin’s feeling about the ‘acquiring’ something for your collection, this feeling of ownership, that I can now always look back at this photo and admire it. It is now mine.
