Regarding the Wall

“The wall has always been the best place to publish your work….The people who truly deface our neighbourhoods are the companies that scrawl their giant slogans across buildings and buses trying to make us feel inadequate unless we buy their stuff.

Well, they started this fight and the wall is the weapon of choice to hit them back.”

(Banksy, British graffiti artist)

(Leo Tolstoy)
