I received a telephone call from Marco leader of the graffiti artists today advising that he and his friends will be returning to Mi Sol to continue their work. Having saved up enough money for the materials, they will be spending the Summer months working on our wall. They will be starting from scratch and painting the complete wall this time. Artists from far and wide will be displaying their work.
They began work this afternoon.
Some Owners have expressed dismay that the present work will be erased, this is understandable, however I am sure the new paintings will be equally impressive. It was always understood that the paintings will be replaced from time to time.
As usual, there is no cost to the Community whatsoever, they are only too pleased to have the opportunity to display their art on such a large scale, this helps to bring them to the attention of private companies bringing commissions for private paid work.
From the point of view of the Community, it would cost a large sum of money to paint such a long wall, and without doubt the vandals would leave their mark within a very short space of time.
We are going to have graffiti on the wall whatever happens, a fact of life, so we might as well have it done by the experts, especially when it is free !!
Photos of the new work will be posted here in due course.
