About 60 artists from around the world converged on the Indian capital at the beginning of the year to transform the city's bare walls into an outdoor gallery.
St.ART, a six-week festival that began on January 18, was organised by the Goethe Institut along with the Italian and Polish cultural centres.
Most of the artists used pseudonyms to sign their work and are unknown. But months later, their graffiti has become a part of Delhi’s urban landscape. Their creations are still visible in Dwarka Sector-3, Tihar Jail, Shahpur Jat, Hauz Khas Village and Delhi University, among other places.
Here is some of it.
