Bird with poppies

From corona time to color and breathing space

The mural at Weesperplein in Amsterdam, created by @timrodermans and Roy Valk @karskione, has made way for a new artwork: the familiar mural featuring two figures wearing face masks.

A recognizable image from the corona period has now been replaced by a bird among bright red poppies.

A striking contrast: from distance and limitation to freedom and nature. That bird symbolizes not only freedom, but also something increasingly scarce in the city: space. Space to breathe, to see greenery, to pause for a moment.

At a time when every square meter is being used, this work of art is a calm but clear reminder of what is slowly disappearing from our streetscape (info by artists)
