welcome
414graffiti is a provisional photo database dedicated to logging graffiti, handwriting, pieces, tags, throwies, etc etc in the city of Milwaukee, WI. Run by two admins, we have an interest in this oft resented craft as it plays across the city. These are snapshots of an art that continually asserts and reasserts itself across space.
How this blog is organized: We will do our best to #tag posts with what can be read in the photos. I.E., what tags are present, what has been written, etc. If we can't determine what has been written, then the work will be given a number in the post to connect it to other photos in the future. If writing has been identified at a later time, then the number #tag will be updated with the proper name / what has been written. Cool? Cool.
Click here to be taken to The Numbers page to see what numbers are currently in use. (https://414graffiti.tumblr.com/thenumbers)
