A black and white ink drawing from 1982,this composition features a complex,multi-layered graffiti piece rendered in a block letter style. The central element is a large,three-dimensional word,possibly "DURO" or a variation,constructed with sharp angles and shaded planes to suggest depth. The letters are adorned with various stylistic elements,including arrows,stars,and a circular motif with radiating lines. Above the main lettering,a stylized crown-like structure is depicted,surrounded by abstract shapes and a star with a trailing comet effect. To the right,a small figure appears to be holding a spray can,from which drips of paint extend downwards,connecting to the main structure. Below the primary lettering,several tags and inscriptions are visible,including "TOP","TKA!","TD","TWS","RTW",and "DUROC C/A 82". Additional tags and dedications populate the margins of the paper,such as "TO QUIK","AEROM x ROC","DOOM 'COST HIS ART' .89",and several other illegible signatures and marks,including "Hi' UP" and "FUN CALIBER". The presence of multiple tags and dedications indicates a collaborative or communal aspect,typical of blackbook culture within the graffiti movement.
