Urban Creatures and Nasimo continue their idea "Souls in Walls" - souls in the walls, embedding pieces of themselves on the facades of the already turned into an open-air gallery of the capital's Poduene district and Hadji Dimitar district. On the newly built building, the artist and the entire team of Urban Creatures created the composition "Memorial". The interesting thing about the work is that it was completed at the peak of the graffiti artist's birthday - June 28. This is the beginning of the festival organized by Urban Creatures, which is part of the cultural calendar of the capital.

Curious about graffiti:

The oldest graffiti appeared in ancient times. Even then, the city walls in Greece and Rome were often painted with different names or whole protest poems. This is a story. Every art has a history. Graffiti became popular in New York in the 1970s and was a form of social protest and marking of territory. It is generally accepted that this is the territory of the youth subculture, because through it young people express themselves. In Europe, graphite is most common in France, Spain, Britain, and today its capital is considered to be London.
