Light graffiti

Light graffiti, also known as light painting, takes what you think you know about graffiti and turns it on its head. This ephemeral approach to art and expression uses the movement of light to create incredible images and is created on the streets, in nature, and in studios by artists whose creative impulses transcend traditional media. Unlike projection bombing, light graffiti is sometimes produced as performance art, and sometimes just to capture it with photography and video, but either way it makes for some incredible viewing.

I think that light graffiti is a great way of communicating in an art form. It is a more free way of drawing or painting, it not only uses colour but 3D affects and unusual shapes and patterns.

These are some artists that use light graffiti
