Really enjoyed this Chase. I've never reflected on the meaning of graffiti cover up paint. This strikes me as an analog cousin of the digital process of a meme, tag, or slang evolving from the expression of an individual or a small community, into a widely adopted/co-opted ghost that haunts the collective consciousness via consumer capitalism and social media.

I would argue that your second example of more of a Radical than a Ghosting.

No one could re-create the tag from your photo. The removal attempt has instead created a new piece (on the right side it kinda looks like a guy leaning forward after sitting on a toilet).
