TRACES - Copenhagen

20 years of street photography and bombing from Copenhagen, Denmark. 132 pages of tags and throw-ups from the Danish capital, presented in a black-and-white pocket-sized book. The monochrome images reflect the raw expression of the tags, combining street photography with a punk vibe reminiscent of 90s fanzines.

Some of Denmark’s most well-known names are mixed with new young bombers in a wide variety of styles – from the cleanest tags to the dirtiest and most chaotic. Featured artists include Kegr, Tomcat, Rens, Birds, Moas, Raks, Feff, Spyo, Jetset, Grape, Peach, Sabe, Cave, Ouze, Føte, Sleep, Helmet, Ond, Tvod, Lips, Snone, Kmer, Beta, Teen, Black, Sazer, and many more.

The book is produced by TagsAndThrows, which started as an Instagram account in the early 2000s and has since become the world’s largest platform for documenting graffiti’s rawest form of expression – bombing: tags and throw-ups. TagsAndThrows has previously released two books and several bombing documentaries.
