A living scene
Street art is temporary by nature. Works can disappear, be covered or change between visits, so every guide prioritises durable context over promises about individual walls.
Use the guides
Three steps for an independent walk
The area pages provide orientation. The street provides the current evidence.
Let the street lead
Walk slowly and look at side streets, shutters, corners and changes in scale. The most revealing encounter may not be the largest.
Record, don’t assume
If you photograph a work, note the date and area. A signature, style or repeated motif can suggest authorship, but it is not proof on its own.
Look around the work, not only at it.
Notice the surface, nearby marks, scale, sightline and how the piece meets the life of the street. Context is part of what makes urban art urban.
