Research about Graffiti Vandalism

Some people vandalize becuase it's a way of expressing their anger and frustration from social difficulties and academic failure

4 types of graffiti
*tagging/hip hop 78%
*satanic/hate 10%
*gang 7%
*generic 5%

4 motives
*fame--they want lots of people to see their artwork/graffiti and they want it to be public
*rebellion--they want to get back at a certain person by damaging their property with graffiti
*self expression--they want to express themselves through graffiti
*power--they want to feel like they're powerful through their artwork/graffiti

35% of property vandalism is graffiti

It cost more than $8 billion/year to clean up graffiti in public and private areas

Graffiti is a big issue that goes towards people hating themselves and others and our group hopes to change that!!
