Wheatpaste

Wheatpaste - Flour paste - Wheatpaste poster

Wheatpaste, also known as paste or flour paste, is a type of adhesive mixture used in street art and poster installations. It's created by mixing flour and water to form a paste-like consistency. Street artists use wheatpaste to adhere posters, artwork, or images to walls, buildings, and other surfaces in public spaces. The process involves applying the wheatpaste to the surface and then affixing the poster or artwork. Over time, the paste dries and hardens, effectively attaching the art to the surface. Wheatpaste art is often associated with urban environments and can convey a range of messages and artistic expressions.
