London's Wall Graffiti – The Imagination Chapter
The Death Watchtower – I see you, and I run








Graffiti comes in a wide variety of forms and content. Realism is quite rare in wall graffiti; it seems the fringe culture somewhat disdains realism, making it a rare sight. Generally, they are free forms where imagination runs wild, mixed with fantastical imagery from cartoons, comics, and video games. They are full of imagination, fantasy, and a sense of humor, possessing a youthful vitality and vision that is very eye-catching, rich in literary and narrative qualities. The multitude of images are like urban poetry, not only making people smile knowingly but also inspiring much imagination and broadening horizons.
In London's wall graffiti, this imaginative imagery is particularly evident: the cartoonish ones are very graphic, while the fantastical ones are quite lyrical and romantic. Here, I offer some to share with friends.
