What I can see
An abandoned building got a unique artistic value. The world-renowned Indonesian artist WD (Wild Drawing) has been living in Athens since the mid-2000s and has graced several areas of Athens. Here, we see his most famous work in the city. The penetrating gaze of the bird of wisdom is perfectly placed on the corner of the building and does not go unnoticed by anyone.
What I can't see
The graffito was created in the context of the “Little Paris of Athens” festival. The title of the project is inspired by Jimi Hendrix. What the artist admires in Athens is its spontaneity, which – among other things – is reflected in unconventional graffiti, in contrast to other European cities, where legal murals dominate.
