Graffiti

Sourced graffiti around Liverpool and by famous artists such as Banksy to use on the dock walls to emphasize our dystopian theme: a world abandoned and neglected. Also graffiti was a big part of the scenery in the film The Warriors which I watched as research and was recommended to us by The SoundCity organisers.

These images are from around Liverpool, I chose to use the 'Do You Feel Lonely?' piece as it emphasizes the world we have placed our character in.
