This is brilliant. I’ve always (perhaps secretly until now) loathed writing my name on one of those drab destined for the landfill “hello my name is” stickers you get handed at random events. Photographer Martha Cooper has changed my mind, or at least she has given me an idea of what to do the next time someone hands me a Sharpie and a sticker badge.
Known for documenting the graffiti scene of the 1970s and 80s in New York City, Cooper compiled her favorite hand drawn/street art tags with interviews in a book called Name Tagging. It is available on Amazon.
