1st generation Graffiti in Iran

Are there any particular themes you would not express in your graffiti?

I for myself don’t have any limits really, but when you live in a sittuation where doing something like graffiti could cost your life, then you should think about whether it is actually worth dying for?

Graffiti is not really taken seriously here – yet. Most Iranian people probably don’t pay great attention to walls and images, because they don’t consider a wall painting to be a media for free personal expression or to deliver any particular unique message anyway.

However, when you step into the graffiti scene in Iran you are definitely “on the other side of the red line”even for most of your friends. So… is it worth risking so much for it?
