Street art is visual art created in public spaces without permission, such as stencil graffiti, wheatpasted posters, or stickers. Common forms include tags, throw ups, pieces, and drips. While sometimes including traditional spray-painted graffiti, street art generally refers to artwork with social or aesthetic goals rather than pure vandalism. Artists choose the streets as a non-traditional gallery to directly communicate with the public without restrictions of galleries or museums.
