Art or Just Messy?

Last week we talked about Graffiti. Is it art or Just Messy? We had to write our own persuasive writing about the confusing topic. What I found hard was choosing a side for my persuasive writing. What I found exciting was knowing interesting facts about Graffiti. Next time I could add a Graffiti drawing made by me. If you are wanting to know which side to pick, read mine.

Is Graffiti ART or JUST MESSY?

I strongly believe that Graffiti is just MESSY. In my opinion, Graffiti just ruins the visual of our city and it disturbs private and public property. Do you think Graffiti helps the environment? Is vandalism and an illegal activity really art? Well, Today I’m going to make you think more about Graffiti.

Firstly, Graffiti is disturbing and an annoyance. Most of the Graffiti workings can be seen in a public and/or private space. Most of those are names that are just scribbled on walls which is totally ridiculous because you could just do a real type of art with your name on it. Therefore, scribbling is not art. Some of the graffiti workings are also inappropriate and it ruins the visual of the city. For example, there are tourists in your country yet there are many inappropriate and messy graffiti workings on the tourist spot. That is a total minus for tourists.

It is illegal. Vandalism: “Action involving deliberate destruction of or damage to public or private property”. Making art is a likable and peaceful activity for artists to refresh their minds and/or to express what they feel in a place where they know it is legal. Graffiti is not likable. Many people get frustrated and annoyed when they see Graffiti work on their private property. Cleaning the scribble work causes a huge amount of money for the equipment and the owner would not like to spend the money that he/she worked for just because of an anonymous person who drew in his/her property.

Lastly, It is a bad influence for all the people who know and see about Graffiti. Some of the people doing Graffiti steals the equipment used for Graffiti because it is expensive and they don’t have enough income. It influences other people to do Graffiti and more people can steal.

As a result, Graffiti is just MESSY. It gives a bad impression for others and it influences other people to do an illegal activity. Would you like to go to prison because of a scribble work that you could just do on paper? What would it feel like if someone puts Graffiti on your beloved property? That’s why stop, share this and make a better change.
