What Public Visualization Can Learn from Street Art

As public visualization is becoming increasingly popular, our physical environment should be considered an intrinsic component of its design because of the various rich, interpretative meanings that it inherently possesses. As many concepts of street art deliberately deploy such meanings within the environment in order to convey particular messages, we believe it can act as a valuable resource for public visualization design. We thus discuss four distinct rhetoric strategies to demonstrate how street art practices are able to relate to their environment, and how these relationships can trigger critical reflection for public visualization.status: publishe
