Street art collaborations meaning that more than one artist has worked on a particular mural or artwork. Sometimes a whole entire crew has work on one mural during the project. I’ve seen as many 10 names credited on some larger pieces.
What is interesting with collaborations is that different artists with very different styles get together and create something that is very unique.
Some collaborations flow together on a back wall for example and when you see it, it almost appears as one artwork and its hard to tell who did what section.
The murals that I have seen vary from garage doors to murals to sidewalk art. Probably the most familiar couple is Shalak Attack and Bruno Smoky who when they work together they go by Clandestinoart. Because his work is a little darker than hers its nice when they meet someone in the middle with some incredible artwork.
