The aim is to cover the 40.4 kilometers of wall that
constitute Line 2 of the
metrô
(subway) with panels drawn
by more than 130 graffiti artists, divided into 13 groups of 10
artists.
The project is led
by renowned artists such as Acme, Airá
OCrespo, Anarkia, Afa, Akuma, Bobi, Dante, Davi, Duim and
Meton.
Inspiration for the panels will largely be taken from issues,
stories and figures from surrounding neighborhoods.
In the district of
inhaúma, the artists will portray scenarios relating to the
Escola Municipal Barão de Macahubas
(the Municipal School of
Baron Macahubas), a school attended by generations of
families.
