More and more tube stations, housing estates and even cemeteries are being covered with colorful spray paint in Sao Paulo. To some eyes, these might look razz, untidy and slummy. To the artistic eye though, these could be seen as talented and beautiful works of art. I don't think graffiti ever got the chance to become popular in Nigeria, except with makeshift signs and notices boards. I remember back in secondary school though, we used to use smoke from candle flames to design ceilings of our dorms and walls, using pencils and markers, they sure looked so beautiful back then even though being caught meant brutal punishment, most likely a suspension.
Here are are more beautiful graffiti from Sao Paulo...They look artsy to me though. What do you think?
