Beauty on the walls

In one of our very first posts, we told you about a project that involved filling several different cities around the world with colour and when I discovered what we're going to show you today, it reminded me of that.

This is a lovely collaborative street art project by a creative collective from Madrid called Boa Mistura. The project was completed in Vila Brâsilandia - a favela on the outskirts of São Paulo.
Walls served as the canvas on which to print a series of words charged with emotions that were painted in perspective meaning that the messages only become clear from the exact point where all the lines join up.








Via: Juxtapoz
The result is fantastic but the meaning of the project holds even greater value. Art and design have made their way into the lives of a lot of people who are normally distanced from artisitic manifestations. 

It makes me happy to know that every time someone passes through these streets, they will give a hint of a smile.

Have a good week!
