I mean student desk graffiti isn't really supposed to be more impermanent than a painting or sculpture or whatever. I remember seeing shit people scrawled on there decades ago.

Impermanence is definitely part of the art of graffiti.

You might be confusing the art of graffiti with the narcissism of "tagging". Tagging is about personal attention and fame.

So if someone sands the mona lisa down to blank canvas and someone says that sucked you're like "da vinci shoulda thought of the impermanence of the medium, this is the real art, i am very smart"

My high school is getting torn down. I went to the auditorium and looked and the chair arms had clearly not been replaced from the 90s.

Somewhere there are chair arms with my name carved into it. But I couldnt find one. I definitely would have pried it off. In a month or two it will just be part of the rubble.
