An artist’s lawbreaking pastime, whereby they irreverently paint
math-related drawings, formulas, or symbols in forbidden areas or public squares without getting caught by the authorities—the artistic equivalent of a couple illicitly indulging in a
quickie with zero public
knowledge or suspicion.
Few illegal activities give the mathematical
graffiti artist more thrill when working in a pressurized environment, compared to taking part in an annual
pressure-free
graffiti carnival approved by the authorities.
