Bu araştırmanın amacı; kamusal mekân–kamusal sanat bağlamında grafiti olgusunun kent bilim alanı açısından değerlendirilerek, bireysel temsiliyet kavramı temelinde iletişim aracı olarak mekansal ve işlevsel rolünün sorgulanmasıdır. Bu sorgulamalar; kamusal mekân kavramının sosyal yaşam ve birey üzerindeki yansımalarının belirlenmesi, bireylerin kamusal mekânlar üzerindeki mekânsal–işlevsel etkilerinin ortaya konulması ve kamusal mekân kullanımının tartışılmasına dayanmaktadır.
