Text SHOCK Location various, USA SHOCK Photography SHOCK Profile @shock____ism Graffiti can spark joy and ignite a conversation depending on the context. We asked SHOCK, a member of MSK, about his motivation to still paint after more than 20 years and highlights of his graffiti journey. We received a response bursting with positivity and possibly universal graffiti truths. From being mistaken for a thief to meeting fans offering him a public art show, his anecdotes illustrate what can happen when unbiased bystanders discover their love for art. SHOCK wants to eventually create pieces that don’t even have letters but still convey a message. By skipping over language and using just colors, lines, and shapes, he aims to create art that can be read and understood, conveying a clear message. 84 Street Report SHOCK

I’m not sure why I started. I remember seeing it and thinking it was really cool. I was always drawing letters, even as a kid, so it was kind of a natural thing. Also, I had no love for this society from a young age, and graffiti seemed like the perfect thing to do. After 22 years of writing graffiti, I’m more motivated than I’ve ever been to keep painting. I’ve seen the power of what we do with my own eyes. I’ve seen skyscrapers get covered top to bottom, I’ve seen people’s minds change about the world because of what we do. I’ve seen people finally starting to understand that this is not just “art” or “vandalism.” It’s something else. Something that’s not fully understood yet. But we do it anyway because we know. I have seen that graffiti, in its true form, isn’t compatible with this society at all. Street Report SHOCK 85
