GRAFFGRAFF
GRAFFGRAFF is a web experience and digital community gallery that empowers creativity through physical and digital nonsensical creativity games. Graffiti, also known as “Graff”, is the practice of unapologetic self expression, socialization, commentary, and art. The user experience is a direct reflection of this concept providing several modes of play that stray from strictly online interactions as well as provide an unfiltered shared art collective in celebration of carefree creative expression and freedom.
What drew me to creating this project was the desire to find a way to reduce dread to the creative process as well as the feeling of lacking creativity that I’ve observed my friends and peers experiencing. Creative discouragement can come from an assortment of reasons such as the pressure to create something good, not feeling talented, or overthinking. Through GRAFFGRAFF I strive to create an approachable place to escape creative discouragement and remind people to embrace the fun and nonsensical nature of creativity again.
