Graffiti is an important part of culture - it can be an outlet for creativity and expression, or a way for the under-represented or voiceless within society (those who have never had the joy of discovering an aptitude for expressive dance) to express their feelings. Sometimes graffiti is witty and playful, and at others an important way to air political, social or economic grievances. And sometimes, just sometimes, it's a way to express your dislike of penguins.
If you've spotted a modern masterpiece or a classic work of art in or around the town of Bodmin, please do take a picture and send it in with a little context of where the masterpiece can be found, and feel free to state what emotions the piece aroused in you when you discovered it. I will then review the artwork and post it to the site, adding it to the online collection; thus preserving it evermore for our children, our children's children, and our children's children's children.
EDIT - this blog is no longer accepting submissions.
