Erika Marie York describes her thinking behind this painting:
“Graffiti Me is meant to be a mirror for the audience. It is a portrait of a person that is covered in intricate markings that can be perceived as the perceptions of others that we wear on our sleeves or our own lived experiences that we carry with us on a daily basis. It is up to the audience to decide whether these perceptions or lived experiences are positive, negative or both. “
