kartografit

Kartografit is a relatively unknown but veteran figure in the street art scene. Not much is known about the person or the concept behind their work, making it difficult to provide a comprehensive history or context.

What is known is that Kartografit's work typically involves the use of stencils to create architectural drawings and maps on the sides of buildings, often using the physical environment to inform the artistic piece. These murals have been found in cities across the globe, creating ephemeral installations that dissolve and are eventually erased.

Criticism of Kartografit's work has ranged from the transient and ephemeral nature of the artwork, to the potential trespassing and vandalism involved in creating such complex and architectural drawings on urban landscapes. Some see this way of interacting with the environment as a natural extension of Graffiti, giving credit to Kartagrafit for being a trendsetter, by transversing rules through this imagery.

Another viewpoint focuses on the aesthetic value, complimenting the beauty associated with the work's high level of detail. They speculate that Kartografit's professionalism gives their art a somewhat polished, almost jaw-dropping effect.

This apparent paradox between a conflicting audience might stem from the nature of Kartagrafit's art and the reasons behind its existence; making an understanding of values and intentions of the person behind the concept still difficult to grasp. whichever or why it's an aspect of her work appreciated today.
