Graffitti - Singapore



Apparently the penalty for graffitti in Singapore is a caning. Needless to say, there wasnt much around, everything was clean and buffed, not even stickers. But in the centre of town, near Somerset Rd MRT station just off Orchard Rd shopping frenzy there is a youth centre named "Scape" and there were some high quality pieces on the walls and adjacent skate park.

My camera died the day before so I dont have pics.

Scape's website is here

Of particular note was the work of SLACSATU, the work reminded me of Amsterdam's RECAL
