"Graffiti (art) became synonymous with the voices that quietly, sometimes anonymously, vehemently roared against private property, homogeneity, and many other forms of exclusions that individuals experienced in the marginalised neighbourhoods of developed nations," says artist Rakhi Peswani in her curatorial note on the exhibition, I Think Therefore Graffiti, which is currently on show at The Guild Art Gallery.
Against such a background, it almost seems contradictory to have this form of colourful counterculture cocooned in an art gallery, with works of established and newer artists neatly strung besides each other. But since we are still creating a dialogue through this form of art, we shall try overlooking this.
