CALSINA PONCE, Wilber Cesar; VELAZCO REYES, Benjamín and HUARGAYA QUISPE, Sandra Imelda. GRAFFITI AS AN URBAN DEMONSTRATION IN THE CITY OF PUNO. Índex [online]. 2020, n.10, pp.42-59. ISSN 2477-9199. https://doi.org/10.26807/cav.vi10.317.
The study on which this article was based was aimed at describing the characteristics of graffiti art in the city of Puno, Peru 2019. The research was non-experimental, qualitative, descriptive and analytical. The data collection instruments were the observation card and the camera. Three types of graffiti were found in the city of Puno: Wild Style, Graffiti tags with outlines and tags. The artistic currents that were identified as the most influential on the works of the graffiti artists of Puno are symbolism, realism, surrealism and abstract. The Andean cosmovision is present in the works of the graffiti artists of Puno in the recurring call of the mythical Pachamama in constant reflection on their interaction with man and how this interrelationship is expressed in dissimilar scenarios of reciprocity and/or antagonism.
