My name is Axel Albin. i live in San Francisco, in a neighborhood called the mission. this summer, there was a lot of amazing streetart, and especially a lot of message graffiti. people started responding to the graffiti by making more graffiti, and i became obsessed with documenting the conversation.Â
I run a creativity and communications studio with a guy named Josh Kamler. We built the site to celebrate the conversations happening in graffiti all over the world. our studio site:

Written in the City projeckt:

…and so we’re listening.
WRITTEN ON THE CITY has images of message graffiti from all over the world. here’s are some samples:
