Photo above taken by myself. The mural is painted on to a local shop wall. The art was created by a local artist and depicts a youthful outlook for this area from my point of view. Milli.
I was sent a link to this video and wished to share it.
View it and tell me your thoughts?
This is a must see and poignant small video and a complete turn around...
ReplyDeletethat's a really cool mural. some subway stations got those artistic murals as well. remind me to take a snap sometimes.
ReplyDeletei've seen that video and it always touches my heart. it's brilliant. reading it backwards was just amazing.
Thanks MJ I will remind you.
ReplyDeleteThe Mosaic surfboard and mermaid are not a painting they are a beautifully crafted Mosaic mounted upon the wall.
Brilliant comes to my mind also.
oh gawd, i didn't realize that. it's just too cool. someone's so talented out there.
ReplyDeletei tried egg mosaic. trust me, it looks like a job of a five-year old. ha!
Actually I understand where you are coming from MJ and I would love to have a try at the real deal myself. This is only one of several Mosaic creations there. The others are awesome too. Will show you when I can retrieve my photos.
ReplyDeleteonce you think there is no hope....there is no hope
ReplyDeleteAgreed Dana and thats why this is so clever because when it is reversed Hope shines through..Did you hear and see the little video?
ReplyDeletesure did...don't always watch the vids posted but I knew yours would be worth it
ReplyDeleteThanks Dana much appreciated...big smiles.
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't until you told MJ that it was a mosaic that I went back again to see it - it's absolutely stunning! I've done mosaics in the past, but they never came out looking THAT good! LOL
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a video. It's very thought provoking. I know many younger folks that thing both and I really feel sorry for the ones that are on the same plane as the apathetic and lethargic. I've worked with some that think spending their time on the internet or instant messenger is all apart of the day's work. Sad.
A reversal in words can lead in a reversal of hope. To believe this though one must cast away hope, and replace it with "Do". Hope is an emotional word used to express those things that may happen but rarely does. Action by doing is what is needed or else environmental destruction will (continue to) be the norm.
ReplyDeleteExcellant mosaic by the way. The colors are vibrant. Wonder how long it took the artist to do this.
Great post! Huggers 8=)
very artistically done.........looks almost 70's in its appearance
ReplyDeleteThe mosaic is wonderful Milli and the video outstanding. I had not seen it before and as it was running I was thinking oh that is so sad..................................and then they started reading it backwards. Brilliant, just brilliant.
