"Spanish graphic designer, illustrator and street artist Javier Siquier seems intrigued by reversal. Recently, he created a series of work on the streets titled Graffiti Removal where he whites out graffiti, leaving blocks of (mostly) white paint, as if redacting the words from the streets."

"Street artists Boa Mistura
sees their graffiti as an intervention...Their latest, "Luz nas Vielas," is in the Sao Paulo favela (shanty town)
of Brasilandia. The troupe painted the walls of the town bright colors,
and using a clever visual trick -- painted words that appear to float
when viewed from, a certain angle. With words like "Amor" (love) and
"Firmeza" (stability), the project is right in line with the group's
mission." (via Huffington Post)
"Our good friend Starheadboy recently
put some wheatpaste pieces on the streets of Seattle depicting
awesomely cute and rather thoughtful kitties frolicking in boxes while
pleading the case for public art instead of advertising." (via Geyser of Awesome)
"Artist Gaëlle Villedary
recently made a nice installation called ‘Tapis Rouge!’ in a small
French town called Jaujac. It was made as a celebration of their arts
and nature trail programs. Gaëlle Villedary wanted to connect the center
of the village to the rich natural surroundings. Magic pictures below
