Grafity's Wall Expanded Edition

Product Information

It was a book that made me think “is this what everyone feels like all the time when seeing themselves or those who look like them on the page? If These Savage Shores was a book tackling monsters and men, Grafity’s Wall is a work dealing with young artists, or more accurately, aspiring young artists. o texto do Ram V é sensível, embora às vezes um pouco açucarado pro meu gosto, mas o encontro entre a vida periférica e o desejo de fazer arte rende uma história muito bonita. It is certainly Ram’s best work and it also features terrific work by Aditya Bidikar (who letters both Grafity and TSS and is a regular collaborator). It was the first Indian story by an-almost all-Indian creative team that I’d read in American comics.

Kieron Gillen, the man of our intro, is also a big proponent of this school of thought, given his own background in and with music. It’s not a huge, heavy plot, but it does put things into motion, and we get to see how each character would react to an external stimulus, after we’ve seen about their inner lives.

Blue In Green ostensibly seems to take that notion to the next level with almost a Bill Sienkiewicz-approach, but within the confines of Grafity’s Wall, RK very much opts for less a gorgeous painting-aesthetic and a surreal vibe on the whole, and steeps it more in a dirty, bright and poppy vibe, a bit like Mumbai. The tenements and the streets are packed with life, and the art is so expressive you can hear the crowds and smell the food cooking in the apartments.

It feels like a ritual of exorcism, of expelling out this thing you have within you, that’s always been within you. Over the next weeks, he begins creating a mural on the wall, one that chronicles the lives of his friends: a local low-level fixer named Jay who harbours dreams of being a rapper.Sometimes weak, inconsistent, and lacking the teeth to cut through the noise, GRAFITY'S WALL soon finds its rhythm, and readers best pay attention lest they become lost in the fray. And it is such a treat, with everything from pop-art moments to psychedelic title cards (like above) to all kinds of others.

Because of where he’s from, Grafity likes the idea of being somewhere he’s meant to be, as if sneaking into another world and leaving a mark.Grafity’s Wall is both the title of the work and a place in it, this singular wall amidst the rubble of broken-down homes of the poor. It’s not Ram, Anand, Aditya or Jason, it’s what happens when you put them together, along with their editor Lizzie Kaye and a bunch of others. So Suresh (“Grafity”) paints walls because he’s good at it and there aren’t any other outlets for him.
