STREET ART AND FASHION

Throughout the process of my final major project I have also been influenced by graffiti and street art. Street art is seen in many places as a way for people to publicly express their opinions and social messages by leaving written messages in public spaces. These can usually be seen in urban or industrial areas. Because of its versatility, street art allows for several modes of communication and expression. Street art has been implemented into streetwear from graphic t-shirts to photoshoot backdrops. It didn’t take long after the advent of street art in the latter half of the twentieth century for street art to have an impact on the graphic t-shirt market, and that influence continues to this day. Street art blends well with a fashion business that strives to be edgy, outspoken, and fashionable.
