Street Art Japan グラフィティ

I am going to start sharing some of the street art that I encounter: tagging, sticking, stenciling and graffiti. I don't know how well it will go because much of the really fantastic work is in places that I cannot legally or safely get close enough to photograph, but we will see. . . Street art, here in Kobe at least, seems to be covered up and white washed quite quickly but that has not stopped many persistent artists. Photographs are from Sannomiya shopping and bar district.
