The Ashes

Like many people, I used to think that graffiti was mindless vandalism, with stupid sayings like “Deco wuz ‘ere” “Tallaght represnt!!!!” and general lack of spelling and unappealing eye sores.

A few years back though, I was brought around to the idea that graffiti can be actual street art and I began exploring the streets of Dublin on a regular basis looking and hunting for good graffiti. There’s so much of it but amazingly not a lot of people seem to see it.

So, I give you graffiti from the streets of Dublin and Amsterdam, enjoy!
