Editorial note

  • The "mechanical style" in the context of graffiti refers to a specific style of graffiti writing that incorporates mechanical elements into the design of the letters. This style is characterised by the use of geometric shapes, sharp angles, and elements that mimic the aesthetics of machinery or technology. The mechanical style showcases the graffitist's ability to integrate complex and unconventional design elements into their work, resulting in graffiti that has a distinct, industrial feel. The letters in this style often appear as if they are constructed from mechanical parts, giving the graffiti a sense of structure and precision.
