Abstract(s)
Sintra Street Art Mapping is a project that aims to record, map and present artistic expressions, of an ephemeral nature, within the scope of Street Art, that populate Sintra municipality. This project is implemented through a web-based platform that presents these contents in the form of a map, an archive and a network of conceptual connections and which, in this way, perpetuates these artistic objects for future memory. Following an action-based methodology and implemented through a project proposal, the research is developed in three stages. First, we provide a theoretical framework about Street Art, seeking to identify its conceptual and historical genesis, its essential features and its main expression formats. In parallel, we address the implications that these artistic expressions may have in relation to social dynamics, in particular regarding countercultural affirmation in public space. Afterwards, three projects are studied which, through thematic coincidence (The Urban Art Mapping) and the structure and presentation of content (Forgotten Heritage, Living Archive), serve as a reference for the preparation of the project. Finally, the prototype of the interactive and participatory platform is developed. Comprising both a theoretical and practical dimension, this research allows, on the one hand, to understand the conceptual, formal and expressive scope of Street Art and to probe its relationships with social dynamics and, on the other hand, to configure an interactive and participatory platform which allows to register, archive, understand and present its expressions in Sintra. Responding to the initial research motivations, this project allows us to recognize the growing presence and relevance of Street Art in Sintra public space and also the importance of mapping, disseminating and reflecting on this artistic phenomenon, particularly regarding its relationship with local communities. In parallel, the web platform exemplifies the usefulness of interactive and participatory tools for recording and presenting these ephemeral artistic expressions and their potential to encourage reflection and assist future research on this topic
