These are a few images that were requested from a previous thread while I was on vacation in Sarajevo...

wow thanks! I can visualize just about anything mechanical from an idea to finished product, but when it comes to art? I can not do that and it amazes me the talent of guys that can... the layers and dimension are pretty cool for a 2D environment... sidewalk chalk artists are pretty cool too..
 
do they say anything?
+1 are they like our graffiti and stand as a territorial marker?
Yes, actually some of those things have political messages in the Bosnian language. I can't make out what they say but some have a legible text.

Regarding territorial graffiti, gangs are not as active to the degree that they are in the US. Fact is that people have to work hard to be able to eat much less acquire spray paint. Typically, spray paint graffiti is done by children since it is obviously more like Johnny loves Jane type of stuff without any stylized technique to the letters...
