Acid-Based Graffiti
Posted: January 25th, 2009 | Filed under: CitywideSome like to intellectualize their street art, but for me, I prefer my graffiti dumb and ugly:
There is a little “scratchiti” in there, too. I can’t tell which is worse — the acid cream graffiti that etches tags into the subway window or the furtive scribbling of scratchiti. Who knows? They are both beautiful. The MTA has been dealing with it for several years now, and it’s still around. If only Banksy could combine scratchti and acid etching in an aesthetically cool way then I might stop being such a fuddy duddy about it.
