Some art forms are intended to deliver a message or tell a story to a bigger and more diverse audience.

Have you seen artworks painted on the street or any public space? What comes in your mind after seeing it? Some of you might think those are dirty and an act of vandalism. But definitely it's NOT!

It is a what you called MURAL. It is any piece of artwork painted or applied directly on a wall, ceiling or other large permanent surface.

Murals are important in that they bring art into public sphere.

Types of Murals:

  • Traditional - it is just a simple wall painting art.

  • Graffiti - street art playing a contemporary wall painting.

Some Mural tell a story about history and culture. Others tell about an advocacy or a cause one believes in. So if happened that you see a mural try to observed it and checked what this artwork advocacy.

A mural or graffiti is a beautiful work of art anywhere in the world, as long as it is in the right place. in my country . In the city where I live there were beautiful murals, but due to the political system that we have, they were damaged, placing graffiti of a political tendency that is not beautiful.
