Graffiti refers to writings or drawings created illicitly on walls or other surfaces. It has existed since ancient times but modern graffiti most commonly uses spray paint or markers. While some see it as vandalism, others view it as a form of artistic expression. However, in most places today, creating graffiti without the owner's permission is considered defacement and is punishable by law.

Graffiti (plural of graffito: "a graffito", but "these graffiti") are writing or drawings that have been scribbled, scratched, or painted illicitly on a wall or other surface, often in a public place.[1] Graffiti range from simple written words to elaborate wall paintings, and they have existed since ancient times, with examples dating back to Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, and the Roman Empire.[2] In modern times, paint (particularly spray paint) and marker pens have become the most commonly used graffiti materials. In most countries, marking or painting property without the property owner's consent is considered defacement and vandalism, which is a punishable crime.
