CROYDON GRAFFITI ART VANDALISED BY AUTHORITIES REVEALED

Croydon Graffiti Art Vandalised by Authorities Revealed! There’s a long-standing debate whether graffiti is an art or an act of vandalism. This article recognises a positive contribution of graffitis in the city centres and reveals the act of vandalism on graffiti by the authorities.

What we are currently seeing in Croydon is a lot of large buildings, especially those located in the city centre, not being used for any particular purpose apart from serving as large graffiti displays.
