Graffiti culture, unscripted. Boris breaks the silence on the high-stakes moral code of "The Spot."
In this unfiltered monologue, Boris dissects the ART, CULTURE, and LIFESTYLE of graffiti, starting with the most fundamental concept: The Spot. This is his truth about the rules, the violence, the hierarchy, and the paradox of vandalism.
Made for the curious who recognizes true dedication, and for “true ones” who needs someone to say exactly what everyone is avoiding to.
