Graffiti Project

Graffiti Project

It’s week two of our Explorer Scout graffiti project. On week one we watched the channel four documentary Graffiti Wars and debated whether graffiti was art or vandalism. The programme looked at the battle between King Robbo, a famous freehand graffiti artist and Banksy the world renowned street artist. Freehand versus stencils which one is art? This week we made our own Banksy style stencils and sprayed them on to t-shirts. We also had a Baden Powell stencil that has found its way on to our garage wall. But is it art? Well it certainly was creative so you decide? Has Banksy been to visit our HQ? A mysterious rat has appeared in the garage.
