42. Banksy and ShepardFairey “Street art is more about interacting with the audience on the street and the people, the masses. Graffiti isn’t so much about connecting with the masses; it’s about connecting with different crews, it’s an internal language, it’s a secret language. Most graffiti you can’t even read, so it’s really contained within the culture that understands it and does it. Street art is much more open. It’s an open society”
