On the back says: ‘Keep or Rehide’ ‘WPG Rocks’. Just found there is a fcebook group, artists hide them to be discovered. Not an English speaker so I am not sure if that ‘keeps’ means that I could bring it with me, so I rehide it to be found by another person :)

    A rock with a coat of plastic/acrylic/etc on it. Is it really graffiti when the wall was empty?

    Differing opinions on it.

      Could you elaborate a bit on graffiti example? I can’t quite follow, I thought you mean that an empty wall may also be seen as a graffiti, but I am not sure if that’s a correct understanding

        Sorry, let me try again. The poster asked if it was really littering if it was a rock(but painted). I meant to use graffiti on a wall as a similar example. Unpainted rock=unpainted wall. Painted rock=graffiti.

          Well, in regard to the visuals I would say that a painted rock doesn’t harm much (although I’d also say that not every graffiti is bad either)

          But your point about the paint being a source of plastic pollution seems more important. Maybe a biodegradable paint like oil (I’m sure not every pigment is biodegradable though) or chalk would do
