# Hybrid Graffiti Murals Contemporary Street Artist Josh Stika Created a Car and Street Hybrid Mural By Ady Floyd | Published 2015-06-01 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/street-hybrid-mural References: [johndoehub](http://www.johndoehub.com/) & [vauxhall](http://www.vauxhall.co.uk/) Josh Stika is a London-based contemporary street artist who has revealed his latest creation of a [car and street hybrid mural artwork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3000gt-vr4). Stika collaborated with [Vauxhall Motors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/specialedition-suv) to create an authentic work that incorporates his interesting use of color and graphic swirls that resemble camouflage. In this artistic illusion, his street hybrid mural is presented on a dual canvas -- part car and part brick wall. The car used for this project is Vauxhall's Adam Rocks Air. This pure white car was placed in front of a pure white wall and covered with Stika's signature design techniques. The contemporary street artist was challenged by Vauxhall to design a car-infused art piece that represented Stika and the car brand together. The live artwork will be on display near Vuaxhall's car lot until May 30, 2015. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.1/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 19% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Street Art Integration:** Opportunity for artists and brands to collaborate and create unique, visually striking artworks. - **Hybrid Advertising:** Innovative way for brands to promote their products by incorporating art onto vehicles. - **Surreal Illusion:** Adding a sense of depth and dimension to murals by incorporating different elements into the artwork. ### Who This Affects Most - **Automotive:** Car brands can explore collaborations with artists to create visually stunning, attention-grabbing promotional campaigns. - **Advertising:** Opportunity for advertising agencies to incorporate street art techniques in their campaigns, attracting a younger, urban audience. - **Art:** Artists can expand their reach and create immersive experiences by integrating their work with different mediums, such as cars and buildings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Collaborative Monochromatic Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collaborative-monochromatic-art-exhibition.md) - [Painting-Inspired Artful Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-art-car.md) - [Statement Street Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surreal-street-art-1.md) - [Confectionary Graffiti Murals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jolly-rancher-gummie.md) - [Generative Art-Wrapped Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kaoru-tanaka.md) - [Tree-Integrated Mysterious Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tree-mural.md) - [Whiskey-Themed Street Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upfest.md) - [Evolved Vibrant Graffiti Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jan-kalb.md) - [Artistic Auto Showcases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/20th-bmw-art-car.md)
