“We are real painters, and one way for us to show how we feel is to put in on the wall. This is for me; I don’t need to write my name everywhere.”

Art & Activism in Forgotten Alleyways by Sosseh Valentine Taimoorian
“Street art has long been a part of Lisbon’s culture. Until the 18th century, there was a tradition of all-white buildings. After the earthquake of 1755, richer areas began to incorporate colour and tiles into walls and pavements. Early graffiti was perhaps the poor man’s equivalent. Following the democratic revolution in 1974, this self-expression increased. Now, tags and scribbles cover the streets.”
