Greater Boston’s Graffiti culture

Street Art

I worked in Boston. One of the benefits of commuting into the city was that I was surrounded by many talented street artists’ work. In my 20’s Banksy became well known, giving street art, street cred. That was also the time when I took an interest in graffiti culture. So here I’ll be posting some urban finds from the greater Boston Area. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do (:🏔️🌙

I love this guy. I think this is LMA, and have seen variations Where there’s a J before the face giving a raspberry 😛
More from the Orange line, Muska and a few older throwies

Not sure this artist. Looks like an old throwie with a newer tag on top.
MODSLMA in Jackson Square Dorchester
An old one. Not sure the artist, but the wild style is easy to read. On the Orange Line
MODSLMA also in Jackson
Not Graffiti, but a good dumpster fire is usually a fun time : )
PIZAKYS and another artist on Mass Ave. by BMC
A doorway in Chinatown.
I think MUSKA is LMA, and I’m not sure of the other artist. Orange line, Roxbury.
I love the heart balloon, and the fish above is a prolific artist as well. More to come.
Colorful corner in Chinatown.
This one is a banner, wild style. Not in an optimal place for visibility, but still an impressive piece.
Under a bridge, an incubator for style refinement.
Bubbly throwie near the subway station, highly visible from the train
This highly stylized piece is on a pipe that runs parallel to the bridge in the photo to the right. Unique placement.
A colorful throwie by the bridge, in the two photos to the left. MODSLMA, and maybe DEXT as well
