The Past Reveals the Present

After being a little stuck for this brief I was given, I was nudged into the direction of documenting the graffiti in the little market town I live in, Clitheroe.
As Clitheroe is home to many older people, I feel graffiti isn't wildly appreciated, although I personally feel, graffiti is a form of expression, and, isn't all as ugly as its made out to be. I feel people should embrace it as an art form even though it doesn't really 'fit in' with the countryside, calm, quiet feel, it adds character and history to the place.
Therefore I am setting out to simply document the places in which I remember there being a lot of Graffiti when I was growing up, and haven't really explored in the past. Although never actually partaking in graffiti, a lot of people I knew when I was younger was quite big into it!
