Editorial note
- "Messages" in the context of graffiti can have dual meanings. Firstly, it can refer to a specific part of the graffito that is intended to communicate a direct message to a particular audience. This could be a fellow graffitist, a graffiti crew, or the general public. These messages can be explicit, such as a dedication or a statement, or they can be more subtle, requiring knowledge of the graffiti community's codes and conventions to understand. Secondly, the term "message" can also refer to the overall meaning or statement that the graffito as a whole is intended to convey. This could be a political statement, a social commentary, or an expression of the graffitist's identity or emotions. The interpretation of this message can vary greatly depending on the viewer's perspective and context. For example, the creator of the graffito may have a specific intention or message in mind, but this may be interpreted differently by an observer or a researcher studying the graffiti.
