"CCC'S Street Art Contest #33, HOPARE, Tallinn"

Here is my entery for CCC'S Street Art Contest #33. Picture taken at Telliskivi Creative Town, Tallinn, Estonia. This place is full of all kinds of streetart, graffiti and murals.

This eye-catching work depicts a woman covered with various coloured lines and shapes. The building's dark background makes the painting effective, allowing the piece to come to the fore. The work was completed in 2014 as part of the Street Art Jam series, which featured artists worldwide showcasing quality street art and graffiti.

Interestingly, the woman on the wall represents an actual person living in Tallinn who the artist met by accident while walking on the street. She inspired the artist so much that he decided to draw her face on the wall.

The author of the mural is Alexandre Monteiro from France, known as Hopare. His work is always related to a chance encounter, a place, or a specific event.
