# Super-Sized Street Art Alexandros Vasmulakis' Grandiose Graffiti By Cowbag | Published 2009-03-29 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/large-scale-street-art-alexandros-vasmulakis-takes-to-the-streets References: [puppiesandflowers](http://www.puppiesandflowers.com/archives/2009/03/the_murals_of_alexandros_vasmo.html) & [zap51](http://www.zap51.com/pheyo/) These large-scale street art pieces rock. They are by Alexandros Vasmoulakis, who states that his main purpose is to communicate with others. Well, these pieces certainly do that--they're massive! What surprises me is that even on this large scale, Alexandros Vasmoulakis' imagery still manages to appear delicate and detailed. Intricacies such as the curls in the hair go a long way to achieve this. **Implications** - ** Companies always think about how their ads can stand out. What does this trend suggest they do? In [urban environments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peace-love-joy) street art ceases to stand out because of the sheer volume of it. By introducing a novel element, this piece cuts away from the pack and demands to be noticed. When creating [ad campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dreamies-treats), companies should think about how their ads will fit into the environment and how they can stand out. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 88% | Activity: 60% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Graffiti](https://www.trendhunter.com/graffiti) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Super-sized Street Art:** Creating larger-than-life street art to cut away from the pack and demand attention. - **Intricate Detailing:** Adding intricate detailing to monumental images to make artpieces more delicate and eye-catching. - **Novelty Factor:** Introducing novel elements in street art to make it stand out and differentiate it from other urban art. ### Who This Affects Most - **Marketing & Advertising:** Using the trend of large-scale street art to create visually stunning, attention-grabbing ad campaigns. - **Art & Design:** Incorporating intricate detailing in massive art installations to create visually stunning pieces of work. - **Tourism & Hospitality:** Integrating larger-than-life street art in hospitality areas to create memorable and unique experiences for customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Digital City-Inspired Art Works](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grand-central-station.md) - [Distorted Furniture Street Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/first-kiss-at-last-light.md) - [Creative Space-Enhancing Companies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bespoke-artworks.md) - [Confectionary Graffiti Murals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jolly-rancher-gummie.md) - [Colossal AI Artworks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-artwork.md) - [Food-Inspired Street Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dish-pics.md) - [Street Art Metaverses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frieze-los-angeles.md) - [Traveling Fine Art Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/get-out-there.md) - [Evolved Vibrant Graffiti Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jan-kalb.md)
