Street art and youth embody a sense of hooliganism and arrogance, inviting chaos into the urban landscape. As one moves through the city, it's impossible to ignore the figures and images scattered throughout – often created by anonymous individuals. While there is plenty of beautiful street art, I chose to focus on the imagery that most people would deem vulgar.
In this context, the backdrop of Balti Jaam Railway Station and Lasnamägi come to mind. These are spaces where partying youth gather, their energy and moods intensifying the already chaotic environment, adding life to the urban "mess" they inhabit. This mixture of urban decay and youthful defiance becomes a stage for expression, highlighting the tension between rebellion and artistry.
