Why Guy in 2026

This  last"Why" from Why Guy's initial run of graffiti is still holding up. It's actually easy to miss if you don't know what you're looking for. The tenth anniversary of Why Guy will be in (roughly) December 2027. I wonder if it will last. 

Getting Closer

The "Why?" graffiti from the person I dubbed Why Guy (not my intention to misgender you) still has this piece of graffiti up about nine years later. Hope it lasts until it's tenth anniversary even as it looks like America won't last past it's 250th. 

Why Guy Update

After my last post on Why Guy's remaining work earlier this year, I remembered that this "Why" is still up on the side wall of the Purple Cactus down from where I used to live on Jamaica Plain. Makes me glad.

The Why Guy Nearly a Decade Later

I documented the Why Guy back in 2020. Sadly, I think this fading "Why" on South Huntington Avenue is the last one seven years after they first popped up. I wonder if we'll be seeing more of his work in 2025. 

Bye Why Guy

I covered the graffiti artist I called the Why Guy over three years ago. I kept on wanting to do updates but never found the time. Also, his graffiti was getting removed bit by bit, block by block. By late April this year, I found what might have been his last remaining bit of graffiti from that time. When I revisited the same spot last week, it was gone.

The Why Guy

In December of 2017, I started to notice this graffiti from the same person. Just "Why" written over and over again. I found it to be a fitting signature to the first year of Trump.
