Starting from an ethnographic perspective of the meeting (FABIAN, 2004), this article aims to understand the practice of graffiti in the city of Imperatriz-MA from the itinerary of a local artist. We mobilize authors such as Gonçalves (2012), Agier (2011), Kofes (2015), Bourdieu (2002) among other authors that make it possible to situate social actors in relation to the act of moving around the city, and between subjective and objective aspects of their own narratives and social insertions. The field in the Instagram platform that allowed us to analyze 271 visual documents (decomposed into 238 photographs, 23 Reels videos and 10 long IGTV videos). In addition, an interview was conducted, monitoring during the execution of the arts and dialogues with two other artists who make up the field of street art in the city.
