Laos, Cambodia, the Philippines and a little bit of Vietnam. It can easily be stretched to six months by

staying longer at a few great places or by adding a few.

I've visited Indonesia on other trips, therefore I didn't include it on this one.

The city actually curated a large part of it's public art for its town festival in 2012, making it a mecca for street art lovers from all over the world.
