About street artists
Street artists are those whose work is largely done in public areas without official approval. Street art is often adopted by artists who want to keep their work unaffiliated and strongly political, and it encompasses many techniques and forms of media. Some street artists use their art as a way to raise awareness of social and political issues.
Some people think that street art is beautiful, while others consider it a crime. Street artists may be charged with vandalism, malicious mischief, intentional destruction of property, criminal trespass or antisocial behavior.
