This article describes the experience of entering the Brazilian graffiti culture through a tour of Rio de Janeiro, Curitiba, Feira de Santana, Salvador and Recife, five cities where we find ourselves for the first time with such an impressive culture. Through field research, we talked in depth with the subjects that comprise it and we understood that the Brazilian graffiti culture is integrated by two different cultures: the pixação and the graffiti of writers. One of the most important characteristics of the Brazilian graffiti culture is that it is constituted by the two cultures mentioned, and that simultaneously in each state, in each city, in each neighborhood, both cultures are further diversified through the particularities of each one of the subjects that practice it.
