Indaiatuba in Sao Paulo state is known for its parks and green spaces. Staying in the city for several days, Matt from Buenos Aires Street Art also found a lot of good quality street art and graffiti.
There seems to be a strong street art scene with many local artists inviting one another to paint walls together like this one (above) in Jardim Alice featuring cartoon characters by Doug Trece, Os Cola and VRL Cod.
Other artworks including a harlequin from a forest and an Indian holding a golden arrow were painted at the same event by artists including Trez, Maskot and Fil.
Estanho’s characters featuring spray can caps can be found all over the city.
City Centre
Half a dozen street artists including Zero, Doug Trece, Japao, Osapo and Nois Ama Tinta also teamed up in February to paint this collaboration on a wall in a supermarket parking lot.
Dube is a street artist from Säo Paulo whose was given permission to paint this mural (above) entitled ‘Hathor Goddess of Heaven’ next to a petrol station on Avenida Conceição.
Brazilian street artist Zero’s artworks are all over the city centre and stand out with his cartoon characters painted in turquoise spray.
This DJ character by Estranho (above) was painted with graffiti artist Fil in March, and is located close to the entrance of Shopping Jaraguá Indaiatuba.
Bes is a well known graffiti artist in Indaiatuba and painted this subway train artwork on a wall on Rúa Persio Sampaio Filho.
Came across this toucan mural by Lapis Meu on the wall of Sabores Acai on Rua 24 de maio in city centre. A good spot to stop for acai with the temperatures hitting 33c in Indaiatuba in April.
Skate Park
Doug Trece, Casp2, psedks, Last Graff and VR Artes are among different artists who have painted characters and graffiti at a skate park for the event Hip Hop Coraçāo.

Many murals and graffiti can be found next to the Parque Ecológico de Indaiatuba. Local graffiti artists including Last, Doug, Risu, Menos1, Bonus and Bizonho got together for this cool ‘Indai City’ collaboration just off Av Eng. Fabio Roberto Barnabé.

School
A street art event organised in Indaiatuba 2020 saw more than 15 artists paint murals at a school next to the Parque Ecológico.
Jardim Sao Conrado
Jardim Sao Conrado in the south of the city is also a popular spot where artists like Tiogo and VR Artes have painted different murals including a portrait of Bob Marley and different cartoon characters.
We didn’t find many large scale murals in Indaiatuba, instead many good quality smaller artworks are scattered all around the city and staying in the city for a week we had plenty of time to go exploring. Check out our blog post about the best street art in Sao Paulo City
