REMAIN IN THE EPHEMERA: The graffiti in Maceió and its traces in the city
graffiti; tracks
The high number of empty buildings, viaducts that do not improve traffic, long distances traveled for work and low infrastructure in the areas Peripherals are some of the examples that connect Maceió to several other capitals where pixação gains strength. This can be recognized in the main pixados spots found in the city, which after a few years of research, were identified and related to the issues discussed here. Such studies started at the beginning of the graduation in Architecture and Urbanism, during the Theory and Aesthetics 2 course, in which the tion was the object of the work presented by my team, understanding, at the time, the pixo as another way for human beings to leave their brand, as well as prehistoric paintings and the image of the footprint of the man on the moon. Then came the TFG (Graduate Final Work) in 2019, with graffiti in the urban landscape of the center of Maceió as the main theme and, from there, the observations were further developed.
