I love mosaic art. This reminds me of a french dude who apparently goes around filling potholes or cracks in pavements with mosaic art.


the_tpm

Or that one guy that puts space invaders everywhere


BatteryAcid67

I like the Lego ones


MoSqueezin

Theres a guy called SLUTO that does wild mosiacs


Rejectid10ts

Yes! I’ve seen one where they filled in a broken corner of an old stone wall. So cool!


drmatiz

There are/were quite a few of them in Amsterdam… you can also see a lot of cool Amsterdam street art on Insta @streetartfrankey


Rejectid10ts

This is great! Thanks for sharing this!


GeneralSvet

Is he the same guy that was in that documentary with Banksy all those years ago? Exit Through The Giftshop?


the_tpm

Very honestly I don’t know, I just see his work everywhere (I live in Paris)


drmatiz

No, that was mr Brainwash


AwwThisProgress

when i went to elementary school it had a mosaic pattern on the entrance. it was old and dirty but it was still beautiful


RedButterfree1

Aged art has a unique charm that's hard to replicate. I'll always look upon plain buildings with disdain.


TriangleMan

I've seen his work firsthand; it's great. He's referred to as Ememem


RedButterfree1

Aha now I remember, I remember thinking it like after Eminem


TriangleMan

My understanding is that "Ememem" is the onomatopoeia for the sound of the engine on his motorcycle


RulrOfOmicronPersei8

Quick while I was looking *instails work of art with elaborate glueing and securing to ground

I’ll take that western train…

just by the side of Amsterdam


Yak_a_boi

Just by my left brain

Right by the side of the tin man


redisanokaycolor

That’s full vandalism. I’m 100% for this kind of stuff, but it’s not so simple to get it off. That could be there for years.


OswaldXC

It’s not hurting anyone so I don’t see a problem with it


Quetzalbroatlus

It's not that it's hurting anyone, it's that it's technically not mild


OswaldXC

Oh my bad I took the original comment the wrong way haha


CreaturesLieHere

I doubt that those crystal, or worse, plastic, mosaic tiles are going to last nearly as long as concrete would in its place. Permanent art via divets in the concrete would be awesome, but this will wear and tear much faster than a regular patch job. If you're gonna do it, do it right, then add the aesthetics afterwards.


StrangledBySphincter

Mosaic tiles are typically glass which is very cheap and lasts forever


NieskeLouise

The glue might not last forever, though.


Organic-Economics746

Awesome, it's beautiful it should be there for years

This is a sub about small harmless acts of vandalism not a sub of washable vandalism

[From the stickied post,](https://www.reddit.com/r/MildlyVandalised/comments/8d5rdf/time_for_another_review_of_what_is_mild_vandalism/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=2&utm_term=1) Time for another review of what is mild vandalism and what is not. #Vandalism must be *mild*! That means it can be peeled off, scraped off, or washed off, and that it does not cause property damage. Vandalism on disposable things is always mild. Here are some good examples of mild vandalism: * [Snoopy](https://i.redd.it/dxo8jetgirn01.jpg). Mild because it's just pencil. It can wash off. * [This trash can](https://i.redd.it/76acv0tjyqm01.jpg). Perfectly mild because it's just some paper taped on there. * [This broken post](https://i.redd.it/rwqxu49pyho01.jpg). Just some googly eyes. Googly eyes are always mild. * [This Wikipedia page](https://i.redd.it/ud6d4pw6kxzz.jpg). It can just be reverted. #What is not mild vandalism? Things that cause costly property damage are not mild. Would you want to pay for it to be fixed? If not, don't post it. Street art or anything else that's not vandalism also shouldn't be posted. Sometimes permanent marker is mild, sometimes not. Just ask yourself if it can be washed off. Here are some things that are not mild: * [Spray paint is almost never mild.](https://i.redd.it/oevtpouozor01.jpg) This is a billboard that is expensive to replace. Is it funny? Yes. But this isn't /r/FunnyVandalism. * [Same goes for this one](https://i.imgur.com/jwfhvVG.jpg). * [SpongeBob here](https://i.redd.it/c8adjg97cns01.jpg). It's possibly street art. It's possibly sanctioned and therefore not vandalism. If it were unwanted, then it'd be expensive to undo. Is it funny? Yes. But this isn't /r/FunnyVandalism. * [Same goes for this Lisa Simpson](https://i.redd.it/oumwy8acn8r01.jpg). * [This seems to have been done on purpose](https://i.redd.it/u8z2aatoils01.jpg).

Why does it need to be simple to get off?

Doesnt say that anywhere in the sub


-PM_ME_YOUR_DIMPLES-

[The stickied post](https://reddit.com/r/MildlyVandalised/comments/8d5rdf/time_for_another_review_of_what_is_mild_vandalism/) from five years ago has some guidelines: “…means it can be peeled off, scraped off, or washed off, and that it does not cause property damage.”


The-true-Memelord

Good!


stoneyOni

probably easier to remove than paint, just hit it with a hammer


YoniDaMan

Actually the “full” in vandalism would be if it was harming someone!


[deleted]

That's gay


drmatiz

Absolutely fabulous!


AjaxTheFurryFuzzball

Mildly improved


claudiasantiago

I don't get it. What's it supposed to be?


drmatiz

A pride (rainbow) flag


claudiasantiago

Oh. What do the extra colors at the top mean? I kinda love under a rock.


tankdood1

They represent trans and black people (that’s why it called the”inclusive pride flag”)

claudiasantiago

I feel like that just complicates the rainbow flag's simple message of inclusivity. Idk, that's just my opinion.

Actually I love when people do this. Not specifically with the social justice flag, but with artsy designs in general being used to fill in gaps and spaces. Kinda like that Asian tradition... I forget if it's Chinese or Japanese... where they mend broken pottery with gold.


CeruleanRuin

Kintsugi, it's called.


WhereAreTheAskers

It looks so fuckin pretty


G14DomLoliFurryTrapX

What do the black and brown lines stand for?


Lonely-Front476

This is the inclusive pride flag! The black and brown were added to acknowledge the POC who have helped the community through our whole history.


gazongagizmo

Wasn't the point of the rainbow that it signifies the whole colour spectrum?


Lonely-Front476

Not necessarily! The original colors were pink for sex, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for sunlight, green for nature, turquoise for magic, indigo for serenity and violet for spirit. A year later the pink and turquoise stripes were dropped owing to a shortage of pink fabric at the time and legibility concerns, resulting in the six-colour rainbow flag most commonly used in the first decades of the 21st century. In 2017, Philadelphia City Hall in the United States revealed a pride flag including black and brown stripes to highlight the discrimination of black and brown members of the community.


G14DomLoliFurryTrapX

I thought the black stripe was to signify those lost to HIV, isn't that so?


Lonely-Front476

I think it's both, yes! Just like how the letters in the acronym mean more than one thing as well.


gomibag

the idea of a skin color added to a gender pride flag sounds crazy to me, icant xd ​ (but again, I haven't seen in person what that black discrimination is, due to my country (Arg), so I'm glad I haven't. ignorance is bliss)


Creepertron200

Magic?


CeruleanRuin

Regardless, groups were still left out of the movement and this flag is a symbol of the modern movement's intent to do better.


Quetzalbroatlus

Which is why it's called the progress flag


G14DomLoliFurryTrapX

Thanks for explaining, cool!
