# Overseas Portal Graffiti Pieces M99moron and ShinodaGE Join Two Countries with Art By Kyle Towers | Published 2013-03-03 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graffiti-piece References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2013/02/28/Pony-Portal-Connects-Germany-and-Argentina/) & [m99moron.deviantart](http://m99moron.deviantart.com/art/Pinkie-Pie-portals-around-the-world-356521182) M99moron and ShinodaGE have teamed up to create this wonderfully collaborated graffiti piece. The project is based around the idea that a character from My Little Pony escapes winter by going through a portal to another part of the world. M99moron has created the opening to the portal in cold wintery Argentina and ShinodaGE has designed the exit in paradise -- AKA an Argentina beach. If you look closely at each piece will you notice the backdrop of each area within the portal that the pony is entering and exiting. This graffiti piece is absolutely fantastic. I love that the two artists were able to find a way to team up even though they are from different parts of the world. Traditionally email collaborations don't work for graffiti. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.5/10 - Popularity: 5% | Activity: 3% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Graffiti](https://www.trendhunter.com/graffiti) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Cross-country Collaborations:** The success of this international collaboration could suggest more cross-country partnerships for creatives in various industries, paving new disruptive innovations for businesses. - **Graffiti Tourism:** This unique graffiti piece that showcases two different locations in Argentina could inspire a new form of tourism in the future, thus potentially disrupting the travel industry by attracting a new type of consumer. - **Virtual Street Art Exhibitions:** As remote collaboration in the art world has become more established, we could potentially see virtual exhibitions become more common, disrupting the traditional art exhibition industry. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art:** This graffiti collaboration has demonstrated that cross-border partnerships are possible in the street art world, potentially disrupting traditional views on what makes a graffiti artist and their capabilities. - **Tourism:** Graffiti tourism could very well become a popular trend, offering travel opportunities for those passionate about street art, disrupting the traditional travel industry. - **Technology:** Virtual art exhibitions could become the norm, meaning businesses within the technology industry could take advantage by offering platforms that facilitate these types of events. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Collaborative Monochromatic Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collaborative-monochromatic-art-exhibition.md) - [Global Pixel Canvas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wplace.md) - [Digital City-Inspired Art Works](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grand-central-station.md) - [Museum-Approved Artist Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/museum-of-graffiti.md) - [Creativity-Fostering Art Events](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/secret-walls.md) - [Confectionary Graffiti Murals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jolly-rancher-gummie.md) - [Digital Graffiti NFTs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graffiti-wall-collection.md) - [Collaborative Artistic Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creator-odyssey.md) - [Juxtaposing Artful Collaborative Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sea-galaxy.md)
