Milan (Italy) // Street art scene

This week I was in Milan. The office is located in the north periphery. Tonight, rather than coming home by tube, I walked through council areas and industrial sites in search of some street art. Which I found under the bridges of the rail tracks that lead to the magnificent Stazione Centrale. The first feeling I got is that Milan scene is more geared towards Graffiti murals. Many fonts like this one which are inintelligible to the general public like me. Second aspect is that murals seem more angry in a sort of "fuck you" or "fuck the system" motiv. In London they are more about sarcasm or love or portraits of local volks. Here is different. Clearly the area I walked is much more depressed and nowhere as trendy as Shoreditch. No hipsters here, working class and immigrants. And Milan artists seem to have expressed this on the walls
