Graffiti Research Lab(GRL) is a project founded by James Powderly and Evan Roth. Graffiti is neither mere scribble on a wall, nor is it a particular style of mural. Graffiti reveals a person’s individuality in a visual form in a communal space and utilizes but at the same time deviates from the distribution circuit of commercial symbols = signboards. In this sense, spray cans are not required for graffiti, nor is any highly refined skill. The devices produced by GRL are open source, and therefore anyone (even you!) can appear in a public space as an independent and unique human being. That has the function of turning graffiti, not into a taste of image, but into an issue of attitude.
