Street art is coming in from the cold at a new gallery exhibition in Vancouver this week. It's a form of art also known as "wheat pasting" and, legally speaking, it falls within a bit of a grey area. Airesse MacPhee's art is text-based: she prints off interesting words and their definitions to stick around the city, hoping to prompt new ideas and conversation. Wheat pasting gives them a chance to put their work out into the world without having to go through a gallery gatekeeper. "We're just as creative and put just as much effort into our street art as anyone else operating in the city who's showing their stuff in galleries."
