A casual stroll through Gorky Park in Moscow ended awkwardly. The street artist Slinkachu arranged this accident–at least, that’s what I suspect really happened. He writes: Over the past couple of years I have travelled to many other cities around the world, abandoning my little people on the way, and what struck me most is how [...]

I’d like to say that you could see a display like this in real life, but this animated .gif is actually a series of photographs taken in sequence.

She adds her whimsical touches, like earring backs, half heart pendants and glowing chains, to the stuff on the side of the road, and the city gains about [...]

Nychos is a street artist who knows his way around the inside of his subjects. His dissection murals cut down a cast of colorful characters, baring it all so that passersby can gawk at what lies inside. So, you get a colorful work of street art and an anatomy lesson every time you spot a work by [...]

Street artist Mobstr always ensures his work says something…literally. His sarcastic, pithy messages are a refreshing and humorous alternative to all the political graffiti many of us are used to seeing.
