The Graffiti shows two persons, a man and a woman who is kind of hugging each other, so I guess they

are a couple. At the first glance it looks like a normal artwork of a man and a woman, but if you look at it
again you will notice that they are not just hugging, they are looking at their phones.

I would say that this artwork is conveying a deep meaning about people`s lives nowadays. In my
perspective, I will say that this artwork shows how people go through their day in these times. The two
person who I think are lovers symbolizes the people who have relationship to each other, the cellphones
where they focus symbolizes the technologies that we have right now. I would say that this is a great
example of the Ted Talks that I have watched entitled “Connected but alone”. The reason that I said this
is because, if we see people today, we will rarely see a person who lives with no technology, most of the
people nowadays have at least one device or technology. Going back to the Graffiti, we would see that
nowadays people are busy or focused in technology rather than physical interaction, even with their
love ones, people nowadays talk through technology because it is easier, but they end up neglecting
each other in the real world.

As I said earlier, “Connected but alone”, this quote shows how people interact nowadays, through
technology people can connect and communicate wirelessly, but in their physical activities, people are
starting to be alone.
