The majority of people, if asked, would not be able to distinguish between street art and graffiti art. Although in reality they are quite different; Graffiti writing and street art are often confused. They both exhibit their work outdoors rather than in a gallery. Although graffiti artists display their work publicly, they really only care about establishing relationships with other graffiti artists; rather than the general public. On the other hand, street artists simply want to attract the attention of the general public by making a statement with their art.

However, it is unclear when or where the graffiti first appeared; Modern graffiti did not appear until the late 1960s and early 1970s in New York.

Conversely, street art is usually created legally, so street artists have more time to do more with their art, allowing for a wider range of types of street art - this includes painting, oil painting stencil, stickers, wheat, sculpture installations. , mosaics, chalk art and even video projection. Although doing it illegally is always risky, with the stencil, stickers and wheat, artists can create their design at home, then quickly apply it once they arrive at the desired location.
