Ipoh’s Vibrant street art – where to find it in Old Town and New Town. Transportation, accommodation, visa, what SIM card to use.
Such an abundance of art adorns the streets of Brisbane that it is impossible to see all of it in two days, but we did try our best. A good deal of the art has been created in conjunction with street art projects such as the Brisbane Street Art Festival, the Pillars Project, and Artforce Traffic Signal Boxes.
Very few, if any, cities remain untouched by the street art craze; Sydney is no exception. No longer a form of rebellion, street art is now often created as part of an urban beautification scheme or to promote tourism. This exciting form of artistic expression is becoming increasingly popular and is popping up in cities worldwide. And no wonder. Many millennia ago, the impulse to leave our mark on our environment was set in stone (excuse the pun). That is to say, cave drawings date back 44,000 years in Indonesia, and Spain believes it has cave art dating as far back as 64,000 years.
Now there is another reason to visit Darwin! Not only is Darwin a melting pot of culture, natural beauty, markets and outdoor activities; it is now very much a place to visit if you are an art lover. Darwin has always had a rich culture of traditional and contemporary Aboriginal art, and now it has a heterogeneous street art scene. #streetart #darwin #australia #northernterritory #mural
