Description
On a beautiful day in March 2015, I found myself strolling the neighborhood of Mullae with two other artists, a Korean girl, and an English guy. Our mission: to find the perfect wall. After scaling a few rooftops, we clambered upon a perch big enough for all of us, and unanimously decided to paint a face. As we improvised on-site, I envisioned a lively, underground cartoon-style warrior taking shape on the wall.
The mural gained praised from pedestrians and lasted a glorious three years. Yet, one day, with no warning, the rooftop was blanketed in white paint, erasing all traces of our artwork and shared moment together.
