Characters of the Graffiti World

Characters of the graffiti world is an A4 publication created by one of Aotearoa's oldest writers, Kane 'Scream' Smith (UPC). While printed in 2010, Scream has been collecting graffiti photos for 25 years and this book is a snapshot of his extensive hardcopy photo collection.        

Before the term street art became widely recognised, characters had always played a pivotal role in supporting pieces and productions. In this whopping 124-page publication, expect to see a survey of graffiti characters originating from Aotearoa and across the globe. From portraiture, animals, and aliens, to stylised characters from The Wizard of Oz, this publication offers a unique insight into the various stylistic aesthetics of drawing through the painted medium. Special interviews featured in this publication include Sat One, Mistery, Soni, and Theis One alongside local Aotearoa talent from Agent (RTR), Ceap (TS), and Phat1 (TMD).        

Printed on 110GSM paper and laminated cover, the publication is printed in full colour and sure to inspire you to start painting characters. With only ten publications in stock, get in quick before they are all gone. ISBN: 9780 4731 76471.
