Colorful Graffiti Revives a Concrete Building in Panama City

Using a vibrant color scheme and the help of local residents, Spanish urban art collective Boa Mistura painted the gray facade of a housing block in the neighborhood of El Chorrillo (Panama City) to convey the message “Somos Luz” (We Are Light). The message aims to inspire passersby as well as neighbors, reminding them that every person is invaluable, regardless of where they live. The project was sponsored by the Bienal del Sur in Panama, and is part of the CROSSROADS series, for which Boa Mistura created a series of participatory urban art interventions.
