West Bank Wall graffiti art

Banksy's Flying Balloon Girl near the Qalandia checkpoint.

West Bank Wall graffiti art is street art on the walled sections of the Israeli West Bank barrier,[1][2] by a wide range of international and Palestinian artists. The wall is 8 to 10 metres (26 to 33 ft) tall, and is easily accessible to artists as it frequently divides urban areas. The graffiti is on the Palestinian side of the wall and primarily expresses anti-wall sentiments.[3][4]

By using the term "barrier," I adhere to journalistic conventions of avoiding terms favored by one or the other side in a conflict... However, when describing sections of the barrier that are either concrete or fenced, I will use "wall" or "fence" in order to provide the most exact physical description.
