These are the stories of those, who participate in an art, which is for the most part misunderstood. Three unique individual?s takes us on a journey of self discovery via the use of Graf or better know as graffiti art... From humble beginning of kids coloring on walls, to using graffiti as a voice to speak out, these speakers invite us into their lives, and help us understand the importance of such a beautiful art. The narrator perfectly transitions from each storyteller in such a lyrical way that is makes it hard not to listen. Plus it is not the typical type of commentary normally used on this type of production, which is, a breathe of fresh air, and at the same time conveys the important of other forms of art. After you listen to this piece you should gain a new apercation for this art, and if not let the ink sink in.
