The project questions who gets to decide what is considered art and points to the rarely discussed fact that access to art is often hindered by financial or social barriers. The „Digital Graffiti“ project is based on the bold thesis that art should belong to no one, should be accessible to everyone, and should therefore exist as a common good. 
The project revolves around discarded devices found on the streets. These are collected, repaired, and listed on classified ad platforms. The unique aspect is how these vacuum cleaners are presented: they are displayed like new items. In a society where people are used to buying new things instead of repairing old ones, this project challenges that norm by potentially delivering the same item that people once threw away back to them. 
Through high-quality photographs, reminiscent of those used for luxury items in glossy magazines, these objects are brought back into focus. By creatively repurposing the sales platform, the project democratizes access to art and attempts to create a new form of public space where art is freely accessible to all. The one-person exhibition, which begins when someone clicks on an ad, offers an intimate and personal experience. Potential buyers, without realizing it, become visitors to a small gallery. Admission is free, and there are no fixed opening hours. In our digital age, websites and social media platforms function as the equivalent of public spaces. Here, on online platforms like classified ads, the project „Digital Graffiti“ finds its space.
