Default Broadford Factory Tagged!

Recently, Broadford factory has become a playground for local tag artists.
I decided to take photos of them and display them here, in honor of the
crazy cats who spray them. (in case any of the artists see this and object for
any reason, PM me.)





Nice one, to whoever is responsible!

These are the only pics I have so far. If anyone would like to contribute please do! I'll add more myself when I can.

Totally, it will make Aberdeen a much cooler looking place.

A decent piece recently appeared on the shitty metal footbridge at the top of Bedford Road too. Power to 'em!

To be honest it looks horrible.
I can appreciate grafitti art when it looks good but that is about as nice as someone writing "Bowie 97 wiz 'ere".

Are you referring to the chimney or the one on Bedford road?
I think it looks sweet, perhaps a giant love heart would be
appropriate You try climbing up there and painting some
"fine art"
To SpanishArmada, if you can be assed take a pic of it and post it up here,
this thread need some more colour!



by the way, another reason I decided to post it, is that the only place
I can think of where anyone can see it is from where I was, (which
wasn't the street).

Is that the same tag as the one behind the billboard coming into aberdeen from Great Northern Road (just before the bridge down to TK maxx )?

I was liking that the other day...I actually thought "nice one...aberdeen's got a decent sprayer" !

I've never seen much prominent graff in aberdeen but there is heaps of tagging going on if you keep an eye out for it

A police spokesman said the graffiti was "a highly unusual and unpleasant phenomenon".

See i think tagging is shite. They should be allowed some urban sites for proper graff art.
