i was surprised at the amount and quality of graffiti all over puerto rico. there were a lot of abandoned and hollowed out buildings that provided plenty of space. i especially liked this stencil. here are a few more that caught my eye
translation top left corner (thanks to nina):
this has not been fixed
with photoshop
i found a synonym
for government:
petshop
i really like this cat character. its so simple and yet, kind of disgusting.
this was too strange a scene. photographed from inside an abandoned classroom. a large cross, a weird cat character and two piles of shit?
michael jackson?

Comment by J3551C4 January 14, 2009 @ 8:34 ammost of these are from Luquillo. specifically, around the school that was destroyed in hurricane George. the stencil, however, is from San Juan. what area are you from?

I live in Boston now but my parents and a lot of family are still on the island. I LOVE luquillo. Have you been to the southern part of PR?

Hi! I was interested in using the first photo for a presentation. Would it be fine with you?
