as it turns out. . . I think this graffiti artist is a student at Columbia, because they hung some of their work in a show during Manifest. Such a huge arts festival that likely no one put two and two together, but not the smartest move.
My guess is that nothing will happen to Columbia's graffiti-er. But I offer this as advice to all of you young budding artists out there--graffiti is illegal. Period. If you damage private property for four years and then broadcast that fact formally right before graduation--you may find yourself with an extra 4-5 figure bill attached to your tuition bill to cover the cost of that repair work.
Dangerous business. . . that's why graffiti artists use tags, not their actual signatures, you know?
