Stencil Graffiti
The Graffiti Wall...becoming cooler.
After looking at urban street graffiti, students came to realize that "graffiti" is more than tagging words and gang related communication. The style of Stencil Graffiti is a world wide, underground art movement used to beautify the concrete jungles as well as communicate political, positive, ironic and satirical messages. These graffiti images are meant to make people think about the message, or just enjoy the imagery.
Students then created their own message or image through the stencil method and apply it to any surface using spray paint - once the stencil is created, the image can be repeated over and over.
