Local artists show what democracy means to them
Local graffiti artist Julian Hensarling said for simply writing on a wall, many of his fellow graffiti artists have spent years in jail – a punishment, he believes, that does not fit the crime. Hensarling and four other local graffiti artists prepared pieces for “Writing on the Wall,” an exhibit exploring the intersection of graffiti and democracy on display at the School of Fine Arts Gallery. It’s a change of pace for artists who are usually prosecuted for vandalism.
