Title: Love in Graffiti

Love in Graffiti is a vibrant abstract mixed-media painting that captures the exuberance and individuality of the 1980s and 1990s in Northwest London. Crafted with acrylic paint, beads, and sequins, the work features the word “love” stretching diagonally across the canvas in striking pink, emerging from the chaos of color and texture. The piece is a nostalgic homage to the era when graffiti and rap culture were gaining recognition, and life was an explosion of creativity, personality, and self-expression-seen in the bold fashion, colorful buildings, and fearless individuality of the time.

As a collector, one appreciates not only the aesthetic brilliance of Love in Graffiti but also its metaphorical resonance: the contrast between the vivid, unapologetic energy of the past and the muted uniformity of the present. The work invites reflection on how color and vibrancy are not just visual experiences but reflections of human behavior, creativity, and spirit. This piece is more than decoration; it is a celebration of freedom, identity, and the enduring power of love expressed through art.
