The Graffiti Artist

Adrift in the lush, nocturnal urban landscape of THE GRAFFITI ARTIST, Nick (Ruben Bansie-Snellman) is a post-modern urban hero asserting his anarchistic agenda on the endless maze of virgin exterior walls that comprise downtown Seattle and Portland. For this iconoclastic young visionary, the vast wall surfaces of deserted alleys and train yards are at once a daunting symbol of capitalist oppression and a texturally rich, seamless tableau ripe for exploitation to amplify his artistic dialectic of anger and rebellion.

Today, Ángela searches the cemetery for an abandoned grave that could serve as a space to visit her grandson. Finally, she decides on one that shows signs of neglect. She refurbishes it and leaves behind a small painting she made, in which we see a sailboat sailing across the sea.
