What is geometric tape art?
Geometric Tape Art is a perfect example of minimalism in art. This style uses simple shapes and lines to create images that are not only beautiful but also very impactful. These works of art can be very powerful despite not containing many details or additional elements. One of the most common techniques used in geometric tape art is the creation of geometric shapes and lines that are then connected into a pattern composition.
What tape do we use for geometric painting?
Painter’s tape is one of the most commonly used tapes. It is a type of masking tape that is specifically designed for use in painting and is known for its ability to adhere to surfaces but also easily peel off without leaving residue or damaging the surface. Painter’s tape is available in different widths and can be cut to the desired size and shape for creating geometric designs.
Washi tape is another type of tape that is often used for geometric art with tape. It is a type of decorative masking tape made from natural fibers such as bamboo or hemp. Washi tape is thinner and has more colors than painter’s tape, making it ideal for creating delicate and intricate geometric designs.
Other types of tape that can be used for geometric tape art include duct tape, electrical tape, and masking tape. The choice of tape depends on the artist’s preference and the desired outcome of the artwork.

FAQS
The popularity of tape art is growing steadily, not least because it has established itself as a good alternative to various other urban art styles. Artworks made of tape often look more spectacular than, for example, classical graffiti. Tape is also easier to handle and can be removed if necessary. We mainly use very common types of tape which are usually flexible and waterproof at the same time. They can be brought into shape with a few simple handles and are also available in an almost unparalleled variety of colors. Thus, various hue gradations can be implemented. The tapes remain colorfast even after processing. Apart from cutters and a few rolls of tape we usually do not need any other tools for creating our artworks. And it takes relatively little time to do it. We hardly produce any rubbish or waste.
No one thinks of becoming a tape artist from the outset. Before we began taping almost all of us (Selfmadecrew members) tried out fine arts with a brush or spray can. Until we finally discovered the right thing for us: rolls of adhesive tape. And we would take to tape like a duck to water! Colorful vs. transparent, matt vs. shiny, wide vs. slim, any variety with its own texture that inspires and fuels all of us. But we don’t allow ourselves to delve too much into theory. By going out to the streets and working there with tape, we receive instant feedback. We get people‘s reactions and emotions right away – something invaluable to us.
