Hampden Graffiti - ProfilesArchive

About Me

"Graffiti is the youth's subtle yet loud, clear and energetic response towards a society which showed no love for them, the so-called underdog" - Phase II
If you have ever lived in, or visited Hampden (a relatively small neighborhood located in Baltimore MD.) you have noticed the graffiti murals, handstyles, throw-ups, everything located all around the community. And for such a small neighborhood that takes only about 10 minutes to walk from top to bottom, it is packed with so much vivacious color and graffiti art.
This "Myspace" was created for the sole purpose to prove that the neighborhood Hampden is a community that should be recognized for its creativity and invlovement in Graffiti, and also to bring local writers and artist's who have visited before together to view new, old, and sometimes un-noticed graffiti located in Hampden, learn from one another (dont be too cocky now), and share a passion and love that all artist have in common.
Feel free to submit any graffiti (such as handstyles, stickers, throw-ups, blackbooks, etc.) as it will be looked over and possibly posted up. Thanks.
So enjoy the myspace, which will be updated every so often, and in hope to bring a Graf. Hampden together.
I would like to give a shout-out to the website known as "Artcrimes" (www.artcrimes.com), for the fact that it has helped myself and many other Graf artists find inspiration throughout the world.
