Thanx! I love graffiti and streetart and I think our surroundings don´t have to look always the way how they were built in the first. In my country Germany it´s illegal just to spray on some walls. But as well I am not allowed to choose how the street of the other side of my window looks like, nobody asked me for this Coca Cola advertisment or the one from the Deutsche Bank, I don´t like these either and would prefer this old lady :-). I love the mentality there in Chile, they just all started to paint their houses by themselves or they let numerous artists paint them. In the end you have a amazing colorful city which has as well an impact on the psyche, the inner comfort and the town society. Very different to always looking on grey or just plain walls... :-). A first step would be to make much more free spaces to paint and do streetart over here in Europe.
