Graffiti is slowly but surely creeping in Yambol as more and more is seen as each week goes by. This is an American trend and is a direct result of a saturation of American cultures here pushed aggressively in the media for young Bulgarians - Rap and graffiti just a small parcel left here now. This graffiti is on a stationary shop called Office One in the city centre. I saw the staff there trying to clean it off, but ink is indelible. It now remains a feature of this shop and many others now. This is not street art, but a criminal activity.![Reblog this post [with Zemanta]](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_uab1ie2cHQC_sUEGXpRIo3ZLSP1HAoUOzphBn_7lWVpCyho7B1FlVxj_-Ce9LDpR3gW8P-nO5XLK9oFgeRNcRy3asjNRLSQ6NpHKrd0_tevW-fNw6827LBXefbLI69whYhBp1WF6LMWVtUTY-yW6qH=s0-d)
Bad graffitti is certainly vandalism, of which the example in Yambol is certainly,and as you say a criminal activity although I would have to disagree that all graffiti is bad.It would be simplifying it to say ot was a pure result of American culture as 'the writing on the wall' has been a facet of civilisation for aeons - what the cause of the 'dissafection'is......I don't know and as for having to appreciate it because it's message is daubed without permission shows a lack of creativity by the 'dauber'
