The best cities in Asia to see gorgeous street art
In 2014, the St+Art foundation invited 50 street artists to paint murals in what would become India's first public art district at Lodhi Colony, an area of government housing quarters. From Letters to Lodhi by artist duo Yok and Sheryo inspired by Indian matchboxes, to Belgian artist Adele Renault's ode to the city's ubiquitous pigeons, the murals pay tribute to the city's nuances. Elsewhere, Mahatma Gandhi is the face of India's tallest mural on the wall of New Delhi's Police Headquarters.
If you only see one thing: Instante by Paola Delfin in Lodhi Art District captures the faces of ordinary citizens, from schoolgirls to daily wage workers.
