When tattoo videos meet graffiti aesthetics

Augor MSK is one of the greatest graffiti artists in the world. Some might call him a Graffiti God. At least, that is the avatar that he's created to represent himself. Then, he tattooed it on to a person...a minion.

For the past 15 years, skateboarders have been making videos, turning the art form into another way of expressing their rebellious side. For the past 10, graffiti has joined in and the documentarian is as important as the creator of the work.

Welcome the graff/tattoo video hybrid. And, thank the Graffiti God for creating it.
