Flashback: Moss Graffiti

By Goli Mohammadi

Goli Mohammadi

I'm a word nerd who loves to geek out on how emerging technology affects the lexicon. I was an editor on the first 40 volumes of MAKE, and I love shining light on the incredible makers in our community. In particular, covering art is my passion — after all, art is the first thing most of us ever made. When not fawning over perfect word choices, I can be found on the nearest mountain, looking for untouched powder fields and ideal alpine lakes.

One of my favorite DIYs from the pages of CRAFT is one that was born from a desire to see a process in action, executed by veterans. In CRAFT Volume 04, “Aerosol Artistry” did just that. ST!ZO accompanied and documented two of Chicago’s highly respected graffiti writers, OMENS and REVISE CMW, as they masterfully transformed […]
