Just a quick post showing some of the photographs I took at Back to the City. For those of you who don't know, Back to the City is a street culture festival that takes place in the Joburg Inner City every year. It focuses on hip-hop, skating, basketball, street style and of course...Graffiti. Every year the pillars under the highway in Newtown get painted during the festival. Its done as a competition, organised by Graffiti Studio Two by Two, and different crews and individuals battle it out to win best pillar. So here are a few pictures taken during the festival:
