Traces - Copenhagen

Thomas Karl-Johan Gunnarsson is a Stockholm-based photographer who founded TagsAndThrows in the 2010s, a social media channel entirely dedicated to tags and throw-ups. With a highly focused thematic concept and the choice to showcase exclusively black-and-white, illegal work, he has managed to reach a wide audience by consistently broadcasting international content from some of the best writers around.

TRACES Copenhagen is his third print publication and highlights street activity in the Danish capital over a twenty-year period. In addition to Action shots, the content is rich in images covering all the typical surfaces of urban graffiti : trucks, doors, electrical boxes, shutters, fences and much more. Not in chronological order, the book takes the reader on a sort of visual stroll through two decades of graffiti, featuring well-known local writers and international visitors .
