Back in the day you would go find that dude and battle him or throw down. But now days taffeta don't have respect for anything, back in the day all writers and muralist had a bond, stuck togther. If there was heat between two writers it was because you went over him, so they had no right to bomb that mural! There toy mothaf**kers who are trying to get noticed.

    Valparaiso is a city in Chile where they have murals decorating almost a big part of the place which is extended all the way to the slums and the paint are a beautiful piece of art painted by local and international artist and if they catch a tagger he or she will not live to tell. The people from the slums will make sure that it will not happen again. Those murals are protected by the city and moreover by the people. I just do not understand how ignorant someone can be by not recognized what is art and talent and just tagging.
    Look at it A2M, SORK and 10MK that's what I was able to read. These taggers will die in misery, mentally poor. Their actions defined who they are and how they going to end.

    Yourself alongside your work has really inspired me to try getting started with painting, never as good as your work but at least gave me that push to try so thank you for uploading this. Also the people who jacked your stuff when you were filming will meet their own karma soon enough.

    When i see your camera on the road. My guts keep telling me: "please, keep an eye or just dont put there that camera will be stolen"... And it did.
    But, hey i hope you get your camera back! Or i hope they get a karma soon.
    ......
    As an artist myself, yes. Its really hurt when people ruins your art or even destroyed or tagging like that. It took ages to making that art mural, tradisional art, digital art, etc.
    What we can do is, telling people dont do that, or fixing the art, or giving a watermark. Even, tho it not enough.
    But, i really like your optimistic tho. Keep that up.
