Street art always existed as a way of self expression in our life in connection with social, political and cultural issues. Furthermore, it has connections to various aspects of human interactions as well, including the diverse methods of portrayals which street art includes and its shaping power on the mindset of the viewers. However, it is important to emphasize that street art is strongly connected to the urban world due to its environment of creation, so it has a contrast with the mentioned depictions of cavepaintings and Romantic images which use nature as a main motif. In street art nature and culture can simultaneously appear as themes which signify that in a way we are still close to nature, even if culture has the dominant position and it stands at a higher level. Furthermore, it must be emphasised that the contradiction between nature and culture can have advantages since one can streghten the artistic effect of the other due to today’s changed mindset which highligths the protective attitude towards nature.
