That’s really beautiful. Any chance we could get a translation of the text? I’d just like to see if the text on the piece coordinates with the style the artist threw down.

The only thing covering the walls of my subway is a light coating of urine.
This is a much better option.
Very nice to look at.

I’m really digging this style.
The world could use more color like this.
I would love to do a project of this size. In fact - what artist wouldn’t?
Great achievement.
