dc.description.abstractGraffiti, as a form of public expression, has been a subject of intense debate in American society. This dissertation explores the dichotomy surrounding graffiti, specifically examining the perception of graffiti as either artistic expression or vandalism. This research provides a holistic understanding of the American perspective on graffiti and the tensions that arise when viewing it through contrasting lenses. The study begins with a historical overview of graffiti in America, tracing its evolution and development as a means of creative expression. Influencing factors on graffiti culture, such as hip hop, street art movements, and youth subcultures, are explored to understand its complex origins and growth. This research exposes the divergent viewpoints regarding graffiti, analyzing the various factors that influence its perception. Cultural influences, societal norms, media portrayal, and public opinion all shape the way graffiti is viewed in American society. Illustrations of selected cities give a clear picture on how different approaches and policies towards graffiti impact its perception and treatment. Moreover, this study investigates how graffiti can serve as a catalyst for social change, empowering individuals and acting as a tool for social activism. This study contributes to the broader comprehension of public art and challenges existing assumptions about artistic expression through addressing the American perception of graffiti. The findings reflect the complex relationship between graffiti, society, and urban environments.en_US
