A Rainbow of Vegetation Consumes a 7-Story Building in a New Mural from ‘Blu’ in Rome

Photos by the artist and Valentino Bonacquisti
Street artist Blu (previously) just wrapped up work on this monumental mural on the streets of his new home in Rebibbia, Rome. The painting depicts a clump of technicolor greenery as it swallows the facade of a 7-story residential building, and is part of a series of works by a neighborhood group called “Mammut” that is trying to redevelop abandoned green spaces in throughout the city. You can see more photos of the new piece over at Gorgo Magazine.
