I thought the Lego wall street art was an awesome urban installation, but 'Inner City Snail' has got to take the biscuit on name alone.
The artists call it a slow moving street art project. The snail with the parking ticket and the one called John are among my favourites.
When I was little I used to tape numbers on the snails' shells so I could track them around the garden. Inner City Snail is just like a fabulous grown-up version of that!
The artists behind the installation are also those behind the Little People Project which has been featured on Trend Hunter before.
What's Driving This Trend
- Slow Art Movement
- The Inner City Snail project reflects a trend towards slower, more immersive art experiences that encourage contemplation and reflection.
- Interactive Urban Art
- The Lego wall and Inner City Snail projects demonstrate a growing trend towards street art that invites public engagement and participation.
- Nature-inspired Art
- The use of a snail as the subject of the Inner City Snail project reflects a wider trend towards art inspired by nature and the natural environment.
Who This Affects Most
