STREET ART MAP OF RIGA

Abstract

Riga street art map was made as a collaborative project by FaceBook group Ielu Mākslas mednieki (street art hunters). The group was created in September 2017 after an initial FB post by Agnese Aljena inviting people to create such map. Post went viral and soon the group reached 500+ members, all hunting street art in Riga and posting online their findings. It took about 2 months to create initial street art map covering most of the notable street art object of the city. Later new created artwork was added and identified destroyed art work is marked with black markers.
