What’s the difference between the graffiti at the
past and today, is it legal to do graffiti today?

No difference, graffiti is still considered illegal by the au-
thorities as it is considered as a form of deformation not
a decoration of the walls. It’s legal only (as in my work),
the owner of the place asked to do him some decoration
on the walls, but if you tried to do it in the street or on any
building on the street, it’s considered as an act of vandal-
ism which is totally illegal.

What about the workshops where the artist prac-
tices their work, how they look like?

For me, the workshop should be well organized to facil-
itate the work of the artist, as there are many degrees of
colors, many sizes of brushes, so if it’s not organized the
artist will waist his time looking for the tools he needs. But
overall, you can say that the place is messy and chaotic
due to the colors and the lots of tools.
