What’s it about? When I first got into graffiti and street art it didn’t take long to learn about The Grand Junction Bridge. It has been legendary graffiti spot for iconic writers from all over the world for many years. It’s iconic location over the Charles River, underneath the Boston University Bridge and stunning skyline view to the East. This piece was about fulfilling my goal as a street artist to “tag” and have a piece at this iconic location in our city.
