Berlin, Street Art and Graffiti - Serie XV - The Elephant.
Yesterday I went to see an exhibition at the House of Willy Brandt, here in Berlin. The truth is that the exhibition was not as interesting as what I found after walking down one of the nearby streets.
This huge and beautiful graffiti of an Elephant!
Apart from the awesomeness of the work, it seems super nice how they have managed to mix elements of different ancient cultures within that elephant that supports the Earth.
And the colors!
Perhaps this elephant tries to remind us of the need to listen to the voices of our ancestral peoples, something that since we consider ourselves "developed and modern" we do not do much, even many times it is even punished. Part of the arrogance of modernity ... as an old friend once told me, modernity is young and therefore arrogant.
Wise words.
