What if... Progress Crit

We presented initial ideas and our problem in the progress crit which was "we intend to make graffiti more socially acceptable" we wanted to set up a gallery in town and get artists to submit their work, but it was stated that it is a live brief and we wouldnt be able to get a gallery sorted in time. Someone in the class mentioned it would be good to do a website gallery which showcases a lot of the work and the different locations we found all the good graffiti. 

We  went away from the crit and worked on this idea we came up with setting up a website and a blog where people can then freely submit their work to us and we would post it online. The gallery would showcase the best graffiti we found in leeds separated into locations, you could then click on the photos of the locations u like and it would direct you to it in real world via google maps. 

This gave people the opportunity to actually go on a day out and see their favourite graffiti art work and appreciate it in the real world.

We decided to promote our website via flyers and posters we would put up next to some of the graffiti areas this way artists could actually see our website and hopefully submit more work to us. One of our main aims were that people could also go on the website find a style of graffiti they liked contact us and we would then be able to get them in contact with the artist to hopefully get him some commissioned work.
