When you are in a new city, don’t forget to look down. You can turn those sidewalk iron masterpieces into wearable galleries with Manhole T-Shirt Art.
When visiting a larger city, it’s hard to see everything. Navigating traffic and directions, we often miss some of the most beautiful details.
Some observant sight-seers have noticed that common city utility fixtures, such as manholes, historical markers and iron grates, actually have gorgeous architectural, or even artistic details.
Check out the magnificent t-shirt designs these European artists are making by block printing street iron. They started with manholes in Berlin and their idea has people combing cities all over to make their own wearable art.
