Street Art is a form of art that connects humans and community spaces, and when the community is creative, it will step into a creative city. People and local culture play an important role in making the city space for creative expression, making social integration; therefore, this locality is expressed or communicated through art. This academic article presents the perspective of street art in Thailand that is growing together with people's aesthetic perception by leaps forward and expressing wishes and interest in art by a wide range of artists. The local people do not need to go to museums or art galleries as there are works of art on the walls and in their homes. In addition, these works of art will affect the community in the aspects of the economy. It is a landmark for people to study many things.
