Wallboys

This work by Wallboys was created at the request of the principal of the musical school Melopee. In fact, the work is not ready yet. The intention is for 194 bubbles to appear on the wall. Each of the bubbles symbolises one of the pupils, who can make a drawing of themselves in their own personal bubble. This is a way for them to deal with the corona crisis while drawing. The bubbles will burst at the end of the wall, depicting the post-corona period.

Wallboys is the graffiti project that originated from the former HardNesh. In addition to his full-time job as a Greek and Latin teacher, Brades84 tries to add some colour to the streetscape and to people’s homes with Wallboys.
