Graffitis around the world

In the videos,photos and articles about the graffitis in Argentina, Colombia, Brazil, and even Northern Africa share a feeling that is to express what they are thinking about their countries. For example, the graffitis in Honduras want to show us what is their situation that they live, the farmer holding a gun instead of a pitchfork its a very shocking image, because the artist want to express that in his country the violence prevails. In the case of Colombia we see a lot of graffitis that show us the discomfort with the goverment, also in Northern Africa they have the same kind of graffitis, they want to make a statement that they disagree with the goverment. But the graffitis is not only about violence, goverment or bad things, this a way to express emotions, to give us a way  to communicate, the graffitis are an amazing art, and the artist deserve our gratitude because they make the city look brilliant.
