Artists

This is a list of notable street artists and taggers who paint in the LA storm drain system.

Mural Artists
Murals are large, high-effort art pieces which require substantial time and resources to create. They are often made by individual artists or crews using rollers, brushes, and spray paint.


 * Raems
 * AMFM Crew
 * 8U
 * NELA Crew
 * Sickid
 * ADZE
 * Sagy

Graffiti Artists
Art pieces smaller than a mural are often left by individual artists, some of who are not regulars to the tunnels and only make a single contribution.

These pieces are often done with less resources and time than a mural, often using medium to low quality spray paint.


 * Tunnel Snakes / LIT Hackers - A crew of hackers from Northeast Los Angeles, responsible for the first use of QR code stencils in the Northeast Gallery Complex.

Taggers
Taggers do not create murals, but instead achieve notoriety by establishing their identity in an area through quantity over quality.

While some taggers simply paint their name or using a specific hand style, others will attempt jokes, use natural features to create opportunistic art pieces, or draw giant genitalia.


 * Joey is a tagger and self-described hater who paints exclusively in red on pieces by Raems, calling him a toy.
 * Roach/Roach32 is a tagger who writes "WDE" (we don't exist) tags in tunnels near the Northeast Gallery Complex
 * CKE15 is a crew who began exploring and marking tunnels in 2015
