Graffiti.

Some people become cops because they want to make the world a better place. Some people become vandals because they want to make the world a better looking place.

-- Banksy, Wall and Piece


Everyone has to scratch on walls somewhere or they go crazy.

-- Michael Ondaatje, In the Skin of a Lion


Art is an evolutionary act. The shape of art and its role in society is constantly changing. At no point is art static. There are no rules.

-- Raymond Salvatore Harmon, BOMB: A Manifesto of Art Terrorism


I took a detour on my way back from the supermarket to take a photo of the hills and the Tay but when I turned round I saw this graffiti wall, and I thought it was too good not to blip!

It kind of felt like it was missing a playground though, at the edge of a big patch of overgrown land, with its hot air balloons and rainbows and flowers. Not the subjects of your average graffiti artist!
