Abstract	Discusses which different developmental trajectories can be observed within group of graffiti painters. It is proposed that adolescents choose to be graffiti painters for very different reasons, depending on their motivations as well as their abilities. In addition, the significance of movement and places is considered. On the one hand, the adolescents must have access to certain groups so that these groups can become meaningful for the individual. On the other hand, moving through different places and through time can open up new opportunities as well as creating tensions around different experiences within and between identity facets. Identity development is thus not a static but an ongoing process. For the observer, different influential factors must be considered in order to achieve a rudimentary understanding of this complex process. (ZPID).
