Editorial note

  • The "@ sign (motif)" in graffiti can serve multiple purposes. It can appear as an individual symbol, a decorative element, or most commonly, in conjunction with a social media handle. This motif is a reflection of the digital age and the increasing interplay between online and offline forms of expression. It signifies the graffitist's presence not only in the physical world but also in the digital sphere, serving as a bridge between their graffiti work and their online identity. As with all motifs in graffiti, it should be understood within its specific cultural and aesthetic context.
