Graffiti Taxonomy


So while thinking of my boo/other half, I stumbled upon this fantastical website with this Graffiti Alphabet break down.





 Evan Roth has been breaking down the Graffiti Alphabet for years. Graffiti Taxonomy presents isolated letters from various graffiti tags, reproduced in similar scales and at close proximity. The intent of these studies is to show the diversity of styles as expressed in a single character. In these photographs, the ‘S' is reproduced from photographs of tags taken in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, while the 'A' is reproduced from tags from Central Park North to 125th St. in Harlem. 
This project is still in progress.
