A collection of original ink drawings that push the boundaries of legibility. In graffiti, style is used to express individuality and is often illegible to non-graffiti writers. Craig Costello draws upon this concept and incorporates it as a nod to his graffiti roots. He explores the manipulation of letters to create abstract shapes and forms while simultaneously embracing the material excess and imperfections that result from his technique.
