Malta / Nature / SocialManoel Island in the bay of G?ira is not the highlight of the city, but worth a visit for a short walk. There is a small fort, a bathing spot popular with locals and otherwise closed ruins or construction sites. The excursion was really nothing special and in absolutely hot heat we also missed the bathing spot. For a short inbetween visit you can pass by the spot, but you should not necessarily do this at noon time because there´s no shade at all. But you will get a nice view of Valletta and Sliema over the water. In addition shortly after the bridge to the island, there is the lovingly and creatively assembled Duck’s Village, which now houses not only ducks, but many other bird species and even hares and guinea pigs. Just like the motto: All Animals in Harmony.

The streets and houses are completely decorated with fascinating wall paintings, with the so-called “Murales”. The works are often interspersed with the content of the protest or with paroles and slogans, the motifs also often show political or historically important scenes.

North Macedonia / StreetartOn the west side of the bridge over the Vardar River from Goce Delchev Boulevard, the Ilinden Boulevard begins. Beneath this bridge and the surrounding walls on the riverbank is a great graffiti spot. It’s not exactly a legal wall, but most of the areas along the riverbanks have been tolerated as creative spaces for many years, where you can find countless graffiti. At this location here the walls are higher and easier to paint, also the bridge provides better protection from the sun and weather, which is why the works can be seen longer around. The pillars beneath the bridge are also covered in graffiti pieces as well.

Cinema / Culturists / Netherlands / StreetartFor the past seven years, in collaboration with renown artists worldwide the Street Art Museum Amsterdam – or just SAMA – has built a collection of over 300 pieces that lightens up the walls of one of the most degraded neighborhoods of the city. Many of them are still present in the collection, but around 70% have been removed, demolished or painted over. By the end of this year renovation of the area will start and, even though it is part of the evolution of the urban landscape, the second monumental piece will turn to rubbles. To preserve the artwork long after it will be gone, SAMA together with GRTalk embarked on a project that uses photogrammetry, virtual reality animation and 360° videos to create an experience that merges realities and tell the story of the mural “Fatherhood” from the artist STINKFISH and the already gone artwork “Safety”.
