Murals in Ukraine

A friend just spotted this mural near Kharkiv's Sportivnaya metro stop. What do you think of it? 


Even from afar, I'm still pretty obsessed with Ukrainian street art!!! The entire let's-make-public-art scene seems to be booming there nowadays. Here's proof:
Have you seen any of Ukraine's newer murals? And can we just take one more look at what was Kharkiv's greatest mural ever, haha? Nothing can ever top this-

    1. Haha, yeah!

      Do you see any interesting street art in your village? Or during shopping trips in other cities?

  2. I need to go to Kiev and I need to get that mobile app. So cool. I'm surprised the amount of murals there are in post-Soviet cities. I feel like they wouldn't be places to have them, but someone told me they are to cover up the cracks on the concrete buildings, so I guess they are practical.

    1. Does Cleveland have a lot of murals? Portland has just a few and they're kind of weird, like a giant banana. I much prefer Ukraine's versions! ;)
