MISSISSAUGAWATCH has been conducting a comparative study on graffiti and vandalism since April 19, 2009 as part of a two year study.
We accessed this graffiti wall via an email tip and found it so remarkable that we've added it to our growing list of research sites. Note, we do NOT give away actual locations.
Also, should any of the graffiti artists whose work appears here object to this video being on YouTube, MISSISSAUGAWATCH will remove it.
For our graffiti collections of photographs, please see:
GRAFFITI RESEARCH (Brampton, Hamilton, Mississauga, (and for comparative purposes, Maui, Hawaii) at:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/43172810@N00/collections/72157620681632071/
We will compare Mississauga/Brampton Graffiti/Vandalism with that of Toronto, Ottawa and Hamilton.
We'll expand to research Graffiti/Vandalism in Hawaii (yes, Hawaii) as well as compare the skateboard culture between Hawaii and Mississauga.
We've pondered certain hunches/theories about graffiti and skateboarders and wish to test them by comparing youth culture in two quite different environments.
Should be interesting.
