After a little more than 18 months of construction and an investment of 5,8 Million Euro, Essen Kupferdreh’s new modern local transport hub was opened in 2019. Very quickly after its opening, the new bus station became a space-off area. The grey concrete surroundings were tagged wildly and most of the passers-by were confirmed in their prejudices about what graffiti is and didn’t feel safe and comfortable there. Kupferdreh’s citizenship has decided to invest money to give the bus stop at Kupferdreh S a new design.
In 2013 I started with a new hobby. In the beginning it was difficult to get reliable information how to find streetart in public space. In 2016, I had the idea of sharing my information with other street art enthusiasts and started my blog “Streetartwalks”. When I found out about this new street art community at the beginning of 2018, I was immediately on board.
