Research - Graffiti Keeps Me Clean - Brooklyn Graffiti and Street Art Tour

"Bushwick in a working class district on the north side of Brooklyn adjacent to Williamsburg has been attracting artists for some time now. The neighborhood has a fair collection of art studios and galleries, but it’s Bushwick’s industrial landscape that’s attracting the street artist. If you came looking for 1960’s Greenwich Village, you’ll find something brewing in Bushwick." - Tour by Foot

'Graffiti Keeps Me Clean' is a motto of Bushwich graffiti and street art industry, the area is thrives with artist and a great potential awaits. 

Graffiti and street art can be translate as a voice of community that wanted to be heard.  I think this video and site I came across is really interesting, and it gives me a perspective of the Gowanus community that i have not seen yet.
