Generally speaking, street art has coded and embedded metaphors - TopicsExpress



          

Generally speaking, street art has coded and embedded metaphors and symbols that trigger associations with the people in connection with existing stereotypes, values, categories, and sensations, etc. At the same time street art can modify and reshape the existing narratives. The interpretations of existing symbols are not uniform but negotiable. In this respect, the interpretation lies beyond the control of the street artist. Symbols are not constants, since they are fluid and may change in meaning throughout time and space. So what is perceived in Egypt has different meanings within Egypt itself and the same goes for what is is being perceivedinterpreted in other countries. Keizer
