From wooden murals on houses and animated figures prowling through cities, to exploding paint bottles in disused buildings, this selection of short films curated by Flatpack gathers street artists from all over the world, exploring different strategies for bringing colour and life to the built environment.
Birmingham’s very own Lucy MacLauchlan features in Lucy McLauchlan New Zealand 2017 (dir: Matt Watkins), which documents her improvised painting process whilst creating a mural at the Paradox Street Art Festival in NZ, while Miss Me: The Artful Vandal (dir: Mohammad Gorjestani) is a short doc about a Montreal-based social activist who has been making waves in Canada as she explores the role street art can play in empowerment and social action.
