Japanese Mural Manholes

The Remo Camerota 'Drainspotting' Book Documents the Asian Art Movement

I've seen some interesting sewer covers before, but those documented in the Remo Camerota 'Drainspotting' book are particularly exceptional. Chronicling the manhole art movement that has overtaken Japan over the last several years, the book shows how artists have brought tradition to their streets.

Flipping through the Remo Camerota 'Drainspotting' book, readers can see everything from Japanese folklore to manga. I'm sure it'll be as highly anticipated as Camerota's Japanese street art book.
