Editorial note
- A 'halo' in the context of graffiti refers to a motif that is often created above a tag, throw up, or piece. Resembling a holy sign, it serves as a symbol of respect and recognition, similar to the use of a 'crown' in graffiti. The inclusion of a halo in a graffito is a testament to the skill and reputation of the graffitist. It is often used to signify that the graffitist is highly skilled, respected, or even considered a 'king' within the graffiti community. Despite its simplicity, the halo is a powerful symbol within the graffiti-scape. It serves as a visual shorthand for the status and esteem of the graffitist, adding a layer of meaning and context to the graffiti.
