Graffiti is a form of visual communication that involves writing or drawing on walls, buildings, and other surfaces in public spaces. The history of graffiti can be traced back to ancient times, where it was used as a form of political and social commentary.

In ancient Greece and Rome, graffiti was used to express political dissent and spread messages of rebellion. Graffiti was also found in the ruins of Pompeii, where it was used for advertising and personal messages. In the Middle Ages, graffiti was used by pilgrims who left their marks on the walls of churches and other holy sites.The modern form of graffiti emerged in the 1960s in Philadelphia and New York City. It was initially used by gangs to mark their territory, but soon evolved into an art form. Graffiti artists began to create large-scale murals with intricate designs and vibrant colors.

Graffiti artists formed crews and began to develop their own styles and techniques. The rise of hip-hop culture also played a significant role in the development of graffiti art.

Today, graffiti is recognized as a legitimate art form and is celebrated in galleries and museums around the world. However, it still remains controversial due to its association with vandalism and illegal activity.
