Layers over layers, elements of a visual conversation among people who don't know each other, but certainly have thoughts in common. I wonder what makes them to respond so passionately? (www.alfaphotography.com )

This is a good example of a wall in downtown Los Angeles that highlights the diversity of ideas and opinions.  Many anti-war messages are posted anonymously.  It is still difficult to express ideas that are contrary to those of the majority, even in a society that we call a democracy.

It's really an unusual experience to be in the middle of huge parking lot surrounded by graffiti art.  I think it would be great to have public spaces available to the artists in various neighborhoods to express themselves. Venice Beach has created such a space and is a good model for future projects in other cities. (www.alfaphotography.com )
