Our workshop began on Thursday morning, ten o' clock. We gathered inside our art classroom at school where Carlos first introduced himself and told us a little bit about where he's coming from and what his work mainly comprises. He intended to teach us about different styles, tools and materials.

After that, we started our "street art day" with a dicussion about what is graffiti for you at all?

Everyone of us was given a small name tag and after having introduced ourselves to Carlos we were supposed to explain what the term of "graffiti" actually means to us.

It turned out that we all had various opinions as to what "graffiti" could imply.

Our answers differed from fascinating, unknown and individual to criticsm, diversity, self-expression and illegality. Carlos showed interest in each point of view, here and there explaining a few things he was going to dig into later on.
