In April 2016 while The Golfer and I were cruising round the South Pacific we stopped into Papeete Tahiti – and just look at what we saw 😊
Some fabulous enormous end of building murals.
I haven’t been able to find the name of the artist/s responsible for this first one but did discover it was painted during the 2014 Street Art Festival or Festival of Street Graffiti as I saw it described somewhere.
An online article plus a (see how they do it) video taken during the festival:-

This second one was a painted the next year 2015 for the same now annual festival, a collaboration between American artist Pose and Australian Dabs&Myla . Bright bright colours! Seen better when enlarged (with a click) 🙂

What fun.
Murals brighten often dull areas (and days).
Thank you.
I really like the first one in particular today.

I wonder how many of the 2014 murals are still in place… it seems to be a very ephemeral art form. My impression from a tour of Papeete last week is that the people of Tahiti and some of the other islands are just crazy about their street art! As you say, it’s a coincidence that we both posted about Tahiti this week!

Fabulous murals Cathy. Couldn’t imagine murals being painted in Tahiti, but glad they also have street art. Thanks for contributing.
