  • The term "characters" within the context of street art refers to the figurative or symbolic elements that often form the central focus of a graffito. These characters can range from human figures to animals, mythical creatures, or even abstract forms. They are typically stylised and can be either realistic or fantastical in nature. Characters in street art serve various purposes. They can convey a narrative, express an emotion, or communicate a political or social message. They can also serve as a signature or identifier for the graffitist, much like a tag in graffiti writing. The creation of characters in street art requires a different set of skills compared to traditional graffiti writing. It often involves a more detailed and intricate process, requiring knowledge of drawing, shading, and colour theory.
