Presented here are a selection of works from Adrian Storey/Uchujin’s upcoming book project documenting the best and weirdest sticker art that finds its way into the streets of Tokyo.

From Wikipedia:-

“Sticker art (also known as sticker bombing, slap tagging, and sticker tagging) is a form of street art in which an image or message is publicly displayed using stickers. These stickers may promote a political agenda, comment on a policy or issue, or comprise an avantgarde art campaign. Sticker art is considered a subcategory of postmodern art.

This form of street art allows graffiti tags to instantly be placed anywhere accessible, with a much lower risk of apprehension and less damage to the target surface than is possible with other types of street art.”

Photographer Adrian Storey a.k.a. Uchujin has been a huge fan of this form of street art for many years, and has been known to put up a sticker or two of his own.
Since moving to Tokyo in 2006, he has made a point of documenting this ubiquitous part of our modern urban landscape.

The Tokyo sticker art scene is varied and vibrant, with new work appearing constantly,  by international as well as local Tokyo artists.nc
