There's something oddly beautiful about finding paintings on the most unexpected of canvases. That is exactly what street art is: unregulated, free-flowing colours coming together in different shapes and sizes done by underground enthusiasts to visually emote and sometimes even to educate. Stencils, murals and stickers are becoming increasingly visible on the walls of India, bringing in a contemporary visual form and turning the simple experience of walking down a boring, paan-stained street into a dynamically immersive artistic affair. You can find art in the strangest of places and the most unexpected of situations. This is especially true when it comes to the sudden burst of creative graffiti and murals seen incongruously on the streets of Delhi.

In the last 2 years, India has seen the transformation of street art- going from prehistoric scribblings of hearts and arrows to psychedelic and socially relevant works that require intense skill and precision.
