The role of graffiti in Colombia, Argentina, Honduras, and Brazil

Colombian artists use this form of nonverbal communication to express corruption and the days when Colombia was a country full of war and people were scare of going out. Alvaro Uribe Velez could be an inspiration for the artists; he was accused for “falsos positivos”. But walls are not only full of political disagreements, cultures and races are also an inspiration. In the other hand Argentina takes graffiti to a whole new level, street art seems like an art gallery. They make the streets more colorful and happy. Horduras has a difficult situation, has become one of has become one of the world's deadliest countries with more than 87 homicides per 100,000 people - 10 times the rate considered an epidemic of violence by the World Health Organisation, and artists want to give the streets color with this form of nonverbal communication. Finally Brazilian artists are also inspired by political climate and corruption.

In conclusion, these countries share the same inspiration and try to express their opinions and thoughts with graffitis, even though it’s not legal.
