    Is there any English term for this kind of artwork, where the artist “completes the picture” on something that already exists

      I’m sure there’s another term for what this is, but the closest I can personally think of is kintsugi, the japanese art of “fixing things with gold.”

        More like negative graffiti since you’re removing the medium surrounding it and not adding a layer to it.
