Timeless street artwork by elusive street artist - Banksy
Banksy followed up his “Better Out Than In” piece, which he unraveled the week before in his 2013 tour of NYC, with this piece entitled “Graffiti Is A Crime.”
The stencils depicts two mischievous children reaching for a can of spray paint. One might assume that this piece is eluding to the fact that street art is fueled by youth and rebellion, but it’s open to your own interpretations as with all Art - especially Banky pieces.
