Art Town: Street Art in Reykjavik, Iceland

Reykjavik-Street-Art.5

Street Mosaic

Though this isn’t exactly the definition of “street art” I couldn’t not include it. The picture of this mosaic does not do it justice. It stretched almost the entire length of the building, and I had a hard time fitting it into the frame, especially with all those cars in the way!

  1. Very cool! I feel like street art says a lot about a city. A city with street art is a creative environment. A city without street art is…well, where I currently live 😛

    Would love to visit Reykjavik.

    • Yeah, I think you’re right. And the kind of street art the city has also makes a statement. In Reykjavik, there was very little street art of the graffiti variety and many more murals and commissioned works!

  2. So much about what I’ve read about Iceland focuses on its natural beauty. It’s nice to find out that it has an interesting urban area, too. That mosaic is so beautiful, and that one of the fish rising up towards the long hair (or was it flying squid tentacles) is wonderful, too.
