Italian Graffiti

Found in Palermo

I am slowly desensitized from the graffiti around Arezzo, perhaps because I see it daily. I am often re-awakened when I see graffiti in other towns in Italy. Maybe the shift of seeing such gorgeous old buildings and frescos painted on the inside of church walls and ceilings that when you see graffiti on the side of a building it sends a message.

      2. Yes! Perhaps someone on the run!?… I have odd things I photograph, my perspective mainly being from someone that was raised in a ‘young’ country, some of the stuff you Europeans see daily is insane…
