Item Restricted The Impact of Context on the Perception of Graffiti as Vandalism or Art, and Its Translation in Editorial Design(2023) Sofia Reghellin; Hinze, Martin; Rieß, Henrik; Faculty of Architecture and Design; Berlin International University of Applied SciencesAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: Graffiti has been a subject of debate, with conflicting views on whether it is art or vandalism. This thesis addresses the role of context in shaping the perception of graffiti, considering factors such as location, social norms, and purpose. The central argument is that graffiti can be both art and vandalism, depending on the context in which it is encountered. The research explores the impact of context on people's perception of graffiti and its representation in editorial design, which often promotes opposing messages. The goal is to foster a nuanced understanding of graffiti as a multifaceted art form, going beyond traditional stereotypes. The methodology involves a mixed-method research design, including a literature review, interviews with graffiti artists and experts, and a general survey to gauge public perception. By providing insights into the complexities of graffiti, this research can inform public policy, community initiatives, and design practices.
