Mapping the Movements of Street Art
Claudia Cukrov
streetartlocator.com exposes fresh street art through Google mapping technology. The community Google map marks all forms of street art from railroad graffiti to low-brow gallery exhibits. Painting, sticker, sculpture, stencil and installation-based art are also tagged, with users able to upload images, tag geographical locations and embed the maps into their websites or Facebook profiles. Members can also create online portfolios on the site, showcasing their own street art pieces.
Andy Clark, creator of site explains:
As an artist and web designer with a passion for street art, I started documenting great graffiti, stickers and stencils as I spotted them. I was sure that others were doing the same and that, if this information was shared, we could create a map showing where to find the best street art in every continent, country and city. So StreetArtLocator.com was born.
