Explain the thinking behind your opinion! by Ms. Haynes https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju (Remember to put your name in the "title" of your response) en-us 2018-11-07 12:06:45 UTC 2018-11-16 19:13:14 UTC hello@padlet.com Sydney Lam https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/301595518 I think that graffiti is art, as it consists of meaningful writings and/or drawings rhat can be interpreted in many ways. Although graffiti can be done illegally, it doesn't necessarily have to be, which is why I do not consider it vandalism. ]]> 2018-11-07 16:10:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/301595518 Ori Akor https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/301600238 I think its both. I think Graffiti should be done when its allowed but when it is not it just shouldn't be done. Though, personally I like Graffiti I would say it is art. ]]> 2018-11-07 16:17:43 UTC https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/301600238 Selena Xiao https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/301830273 Graffiti can be both, as graffiti can convey a meaningful message that the public can easily see, and therefore would be considered art. When graffiti is done on private property, it can be considered as vandalism.

People express their feelings and themselves by writing or drawing letters on the wall. That means graffiti has its own meaning to it. ]]> 2018-11-08 02:01:47 UTC https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/301869217 Sydney Lobel https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/302222881 I believe graffiti is art. It consists of drawings and writings that have personal meaning to the artist. People are able to express their beliefs and opinions through graffiti making it art. ]]> 2018-11-08 17:57:02 UTC https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/302222881 Aaron Lazar https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/302223685 I believe Graffiti is art, as art is anything that allows people to express themselves/their feelings.

There is art in graffiti though the expressions and story they want to tell. ]]> 2018-11-08 18:02:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/302226225 Jack Berman https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/302226962 I think that Graffiti is both art and vandalism.

However, if it is done illegally on someone's property without permission, it should be considered vandalism.

Its usually considered art if it is intricate, artistic, and creative. It is vandalism if it not very artistic, conveys offensive messages without adding depth, or is designed just to damage property.]]> 2018-11-08 18:59:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/302266138 Ryan Amir https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/302266844 It depends on the situation. Is the graffiti being used for an artistic purpose or vandalism on someones private property? It could be for aesthetic artistic reasons that graffiti would be considered as an art. It could be either.

I think graffiti is a type of art even if it is illegal. I think it's art because some people can express themselves or their ideas through graffiti.

Expressing an idea throughout some artistic means, regardless of consent or authorization. If there is a law against it, it will be vandalism, but will also be art at the same time.

It can be vandalism if it is violating someones property.]]> 2018-11-12 01:53:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/303084308 Roy Ke https://padlet.com/kristen_a_haynes/zcfrnq5hiwju/wish/305415292 Graffiti can be an art, vandalism, or both. It is art when someone expresses themselves through the process. It can be vandalism if it is on someone else's property without their permission and if the image has no meaning. It can be both if the image has a message from the artist and it is done on someone else's property.
