Personalia

Personalia – 1 : biographical or personal anecdotes or notes
2 : personal belongings or concerns

Personalia is a visual study of graffiti culture in Sweden. The book discusses graffiti by portraying graffiti writers and by depicting their lifestyle. Showcasing the many different walks of life encompassed by practitioners, Riikonen looks past the simplistic notions held by the general public of what graffiti culture is and who identifies with it.

The book is an excerpt from the work When everything comes together but nothing makes sense.
