within the familiar - graffiti


graffiti "participation" wall
Lippitt Park, Providence, RI

*

A graffiti wall had been set up for the music festival. Cans of spray paint, markers and paint were supplied to whomever felt the urge to express themselves. Over the course of the day children, teens and adults all took stances on either side of the wall. Layers upon layers of individual moments each one hiding the last - constantly changing.
I took this picture around 4:00 - the sun filtering through the canopy of trees softening the edges. The layers suddenly had depth and the balance of colors sang out to me.
It stood still for just that moment.
