This project looks at the accidental compositions left when graffiti is painted over — mismatched greens, brushed greys, partial coats, and the quiet geometry of coverup.

Most of the early work was found and photographed around Corona, CA. The photos are the work: before, after, and the residue of cleaning up someone else’s marks.
