Transforming City Spaces: Street Art, Urban Cultures, Transnational Networks

Why has an illicit activity become one of the most significant art movements of recent years? How did a subcultural practice once regarded as vandalism come to signify urban creativity? In what ways can street art contribute to the invigoration of cultural practices and city spaces?

The project provides a grounded evaluation of street art’s potential to transform our understandings and experiences of urban spaces, cultural value, and traansnational networks.
