This photo assignment focused on the artists and performers that gathered in the streets of Florence, Italy. As one of the most iconic landmarks for art history, the city centered itself around these artisans.
From the moment I arrived in Florence, Italy I noticed the graffiti. I focused this photo assignment on this graffiti as a social issue. Some of these photos were taken in Naples, Italy where graffiti is used to make political statements. In an area where the mafia used to control the streets and where police presence almost didn't exist, a lot of the graffiti were social comments on the wellbeing of the community and the people living there.
