We’ve shown you some of our favourite Cape Town street art pieces, and now it’s time for a few from in and around Joburg. Why not do some wall scouting and find some hidden creative gems next time you’re out and about?

Wall scouting is a term for dedicated igers (Instagrammers for the not so tech savvy), where people go on the hunt for cool street art to shoot. Here are some of our favourites from the Mother City and surrounds. See if you can spot these murals, mosaics, stitches and wheatpastes when you’re next out and about!

Wise words found on the street. #obz #quotestoliveby #capetownstreetart #fridayisbae

#capetownstreetart #streetart #art #graffiti #mural #southafrica #africa #capetown #iphone #iphone4 #iphone4s #iphone5 #iphone5s “The Harvest” by @_faith47 #Thingking is an interactive street art piece that connects people across social, spatial and digital divides. #DesignIndaba Trust, Faith47 and Thingking have teamed up to create a mural that seeks to create a community level change through the duality of art-based social impact. In Monwabisi Park, Khayelitsha the lived reality of more than 25 000 people are that they are very likely to be the victim of a violent crime, even loose their lives, for walking to the toilet or communal tap at night. In informal settlements there is a direct correlation between light and safety. The #ANOTHERLIGHTUP project aims to raise funds for streetlights to light up a 700m pathway between public taps and other better lit areas. Installing lights is one impactful move towards creating a safer space for the local residents of Monwabisi Park. The mural, entitled ‘The Harvest’, is located in District Six next to De Waal Drive. Faith47 chose an image that represents the feminine spirit that is nurturing and life giving, bearing crops – a symbol of fertility and abundance. The background is subtly adorned with sacred geometry; the Flower of Life gives shape to a golden tapestry radiating from her umbilical centre. The multi-storey artwork has a visual feedback loop for those who view it; the wall lights up at night each time enough money is raised for one new light to be installed on a pathway in Monwabisi Park, Khayelitsha through the organisation VPUU (Violence Prevention through Urban Upgrading). http://vimeo.com/m/88077207 This video by Rown Pybus of Makhulu shows the installation of the mural.
