<div>&nbsp;The Street art for Rights project was born with the intention of bringing art to neighborhoods with difficult contexts on the outskirts of Rome, adopting the 17 Goals of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of the United Nations and filtering them with the eye of contemporary art. The goal is to give artistic substance to the action plan for people, the planet and prosperity promoted by the UN, bringing the community closer to the various themes and encouraging discussion about the pressing problems of the contemporary era.<br><br>In this third edition the artists, selected for their civil commitment as well as for their sign and artistic impact, have created 8 walls in the Settecamini, Ponte Mammolo and San Paolo districts, dedicated to the Global Goals from 10 to 17 of the Agenda 2030. All the artists have returned, each from their own personal point of view, a powerful image of the key concept of sustainable development.

NSN997 have created a wall entitled <strong><em>Cooperazione, </em></strong>representing the <strong>union of different disciplines, knowledge, cultures, ethnic groups and generations</strong> that make up the central ring, symbolising a new, ecological, egalitarian and sustainable vision of the world.&nbsp;<br>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><strong>Obiettivo 17 – Partnership per gli obiettivi</strong></div><div>L’ultimo punto dell’Agenda ONU 2030 è un riepilogo dei precedenti e dà la chiave per realizzarli tutti: alla base deve esserci la <strong>collaborazione</strong> tra paesi ed un’armonia economica e politica globale.

The creature is sitting on a cut tree trunk, a symbol of deforestation and desertification, and it is on it that he plays, instilling positivity and hope: it is not too late to stop and start new life.&nbsp;<br>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>&nbsp;<strong>Obiettivo 15 – Vita sulla terra</strong></div><div>Il goal 15 è rappresentato dall’opera di <strong>Natalia Rak</strong>: un bambino, o forse una creatura dei boschi mentre seduto su un tronco, come nella tradizione fiabesca, suona il flauto, che attraverso la sua melodia dà vita ad una <strong>danza di piante, fiori e farfalle</strong>. La creatura è seduta su un tronco tagliato, simbolo di deforestazione e desertificazione e proprio su di esso suona, infondendo positività e speranza: non è troppo tardi per fermarsi e dare inizio a nuova vita.&nbsp;</div>

GOAL 15 - Life on earth

<div>&nbsp;Icarus is a well-known figure in Greek mythology. Daedalus created wings for his son Icarus to escape from the labyrinth where they were imprisoned. He warns him not to fly too low: Icarus his wings would get wet from the water, which would cause him to collapse. But he told him not to fly too high either, because it would cause the wax built into his wings to melt. Once Icarus started flying, he could not keep himself from flying higher and higher. Eventually, the sun melted his wings, and Icarus collapsed.<br><br>The interpretation of Icarus' myth is known as a result of excessive ambition. The society we live in today is designed to be more efficient, producing bigger amounts with fewer tools. Small farmers were replaced by big factories, and horses were replaced by cars. Even though this society is designed with the best intentions, the crisis we live in today proves that our ambition and ego as humankind might have grown excessively. Sometimes, it's good to take a step back from our ambitions in order to fly in between the lines. If we work hard for this specific goal, we could provide ourselves a better future.<br><br>The mural depicts a female version of Icarus having her wings polluted with oil. On the left side of the building, she cleans them with a cloth, causing her to be able to fly. On the opposite side, she lost her wings and collapsed.&nbsp;</div>

<div>The gift of the famous Belgian street artist to the capital is a hymn to instinct 30 meters high. In this monumental painting in the Testaccio district of Rome, Roa celebrates the symbol of Rome with a contemporary she-wolf ready to jump to free herself from the discomfort in the space that constrains her. An extraordinary work in terms of construction quality, also the result of the courage of the condominiums of the building that houses it and of the municipal administration, a work destined to make people discuss but isn't this the duty of the cultural avant-gardes?<br><br>Supported by 999 Contemporary</div>

Iena’s artwork places strong emphasis on environmentalism. This project at Ostiense is setting off increased public awareness about environmentalism in urban settings. The value of the work is strongly symbolic: the animal, in fact, not only hunts its prey, but also the pollution in one of the most trafficked and polluted intersections of the capital thanks to the use of eco-paintings.<br><br><strong>EUROPE’S LARGEST GREEN MURAL<br></strong><br></div><div>This mural is made from a special eco-paint that can actually break down atmospheric pollutants. This is possible thanks to a chemical process in the paint whereby pollutants are essentially captured and removed from the air, purifying it in a natural way.</div><div>This revolutionary technology is called Airlite, which is available for anyone to use. Tests show that <strong>Airlite</strong> may reduce air pollution by up to 88.8%, and can also eliminate bacteria from surfaces, repel dust, and neutralize odors.</div><div>It is a truly impactful solution. Consider this quick example: a surface space of 100m2 (one hundred square meters) painted with Airlite has the same positive impact on air quality as 100m2 of forest.<br><br></div><div><strong>This solution is sustainable in two distinct ways: in the medium and in the message.<br><br></strong><br></div><div><br></div>

The artist reasoned about the 14th goal of the UN 2030 Agenda, which aims to 'conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development'. The result of Oizmud's work is a <strong>hybrid creature that has ended up in the abyss</strong>, the cause and at the same time the cure for a collective man-made wound. <strong><em>Polline</em></strong> is person and animal, it is object and coral. Pollen is a mirror of our society.&nbsp;<br>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>&nbsp;<strong>Obiettivo 14 – Vita sott'acqua</strong></div><div>Barbara Oizmud ha realizzato una <strong>riflessione capillare sulla vita sott’acqua</strong> e sulla sempre più ampia diffusione di <strong>microplastiche</strong> all’interno dei mari. L’opera sulla parete della metropolitana di Ponte Mammolo si chiama “<strong><em>Polline</em></strong>”, ed è dedicata alla flora e fauna acquatica. L’artista ha ragionato sul 14esimo obiettivo dell’Agenda ONU 2030, che mira a “<em>conservare e utilizzare in modo durevole gli oceani, i mari e le risorse marine per uno sviluppo sostenibile</em>”. Il risultato del lavoro di Oizmud è <strong>una creatura ibrida finita negli abissi</strong>, causa e al tempo stesso cura di una ferita collettiva generata dall’uomo. Polline è persona e animale, è oggetto e corallo. Polline è uno specchio della nostra società.&nbsp;</div>

Partie de campagne (Una gita in campagna)

Pixel Pancho

<div><strong>After his successful solo exhibition in Rome with Varsi Gallery, Pixel Pancho worked on a massive wall in the district of Primavalle in Rome, Italy. The Italian artist brought to life this beautiful artwork showing the legend of Theseus and his fight with the Minotaurus.</strong><br><br>Entitled “Theseus and the Minotaur”, the mural sees Pixel Pancho first of all inspired by the famous myth of Theseus, through a reworking that passes here towards a new and interesting aesthetic approach. In fact, the artist tackles the large surface with a painting marked by small brushes, which dramatically increase the level of detail and involvement, creating the silhouette of his iconic robots and natural ornamental elements, through small and meticulous strokes. Reimagining the mythological as robotic, his violent struggles are at once crushing and sensual, brutally lyrical, animatronically efficient. The two robotic-looking characters are part of his artistic reflection on the encounter between robots and gods, extraordinarily revisiting the classic myth that fits into the ordinary life of a suburban neighborhood.<br><br>The narrative in Pixelpancho‘s work is driven by a forgotten world sitting under a blanket of dust. In his universe, broken and dented robots are found decaying on the ground, their iron and rusted copper bodies falling and laying about as if discarded into oblivion. Although the scale of his work varies, his surreal realm is the constant thread that pierces through contemporary and historical references. The strength of the physical dimension and of the gestures that humanize his robots are particularly noticeable on the walls of abandoned buildings in cities throughout Europe, the U.S. and Mexico, and are all part of an interconnected structure of stories, as in all of his murals, paintings, and sculptures.</div>

<div>&nbsp;Forgotten hopes to bring attention to buildings, considered to have high potential and that run the risk of being forgotten, through street art, linked to several collateral events aimed to let the people appreciate the building and its surroundings<br><br>Bordalo II, conveys the perfect message to highlight this metamorphosis. In his work, which converts urban garbage into large assemblages representing colorful and impactful animals, he demonstrates how rejected objects can be repurposed to form art. The artist’s works are at the same time a critique towards contemporary society that is not able to see the beauty that can come also from waste materials.<br><br>The place chosen is Saint Peter Station which, with 253 trains per day, is the station of the shortest international railway in the world – connecting Italy with Vatican State.<br><br></div><div>This intervention at Saint Peter Station owned by Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (Ferrovia dello Stato Group) talks about the profound metamorphosis of urban areas: the main railway Stations to access the city of Rome, built in the beginning of the 20th century, and at the time placed at the outskirts of the city, became very central after the physiological expansion of the metropolis, and are nowadays used for local and suburban transportation with record peaks of daily users. Forgotten proposes the theme of urban stations to underline their historical meaning but also the real possibility to use more and more metropolitan trains instead of road transportation in the future.<br><br>For more info on the "making of" , head over to local <a href="https://www.blocal-travel.com/street-art/bordal-ii-in-rome/">Giulia's Blocal blog for some interesting stories.</a></div>

<div>Museo della Mente once was a public mental institution dating back to the 16th century and where the mentally infirm were treated in the most shameful ways was shut down in 1978. The structure has always been a “city inside the city”: a 130-hectare park with roads, a church, houses, and a canteen. Hospital workers and the mentally ill patients used to live there.&nbsp;<br>When the place was abandoned, political conflict arose with regard to giving it a new life. In the last 20 years, associations of volunteers have worked to maintain the decor of the park. Some of the apartments have been occupied by young people. The Ex-Laundry, an incredible intercultural center that offers courses and manages a small café, was born. The past of the Ex-Manicomio is remembered inside the “Museum of the Mind.”&nbsp;<br>Local street artists have passed by and spontaneously decorated many of the obsolete buildings with beautiful paintings. Sometimes, their artistic rendition deals with mental illness. The place, rather than being macabre, now has its charm. Take a walk inside the icon of this neighborhood on the north-western outskirts of Rome. Murals emerge from concrete like elves. Pine trees create a pleasant shade. The art is vibrant here and will surprise you.&nbsp;<br>Venezuelan artist Gomez who resides in Rome painted the outside of the main buidling.<br>"I thought of representing society's perception of madness as a negative thing, to be isolated - says Gomez - In truth I am convinced that madness is a social label and that indeed, often in a certain bizarre resides a sensitive, similar spirit to art. I was not born a painter and for many years I avoided madness, I have to thank the family and friends who believed in me and through whose trust and patience I found a way to express myself today ".</div>

<div>The Street art for Rights project was born with the intention of bringing art to neighborhoods with difficult contexts on the outskirts of Rome, adopting the 17 Goals of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of the United Nations and filtering them with the eye of contemporary art. The goal is to give artistic substance to the action plan for people, the planet and prosperity promoted by the UN, bringing the community closer to the various themes and encouraging discussion about the pressing problems of the contemporary era.<br><br>In this third edition the artists, selected for their civil commitment as well as for their sign and artistic impact, have created 8 walls in the Settecamini, Ponte Mammolo and San Paolo districts, dedicated to the Global Goals from 10 to 17 of the Agenda 2030. All the artists have returned, each from their own personal point of view, a powerful image of the key concept of sustainable development. Furthermore, all the walls were made using the special paints of the AirLite patent, products that are able to transform polluting agents into salt molecules and start the photosynthesis process.<br><br><strong>Goal 10 – Reduce inequalities</strong><br>Actorep, with his romantic portraits that lead to reflection on increasingly fragile human relationships, interpreted the Global Goal number 10, or Reduce inequalities. The masonry represents two faces, placed one in front of the other, unidentifiable by race, ethnicity and gender thanks to the abstraction of color. The two figures look into each other's eyes, with a look of affection, love and inclusion.<br>"Inequalities may arise from gender, geographical location, age, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, social class and religion, and continue to exist within and between countries, affecting equal access, opportunities and outcomes. In some parts of the world, these disparities are becoming more apparent.<br>I was born and currently live in Calabria, and I believe that we Calabrian citizens are certainly less fortunate than other citizens who may live in the north of the country or abroad, and do you know why?<br>Because if you have a health problem and need treatment, you're either lucky or you have to travel at least 1000 km to receive the necessary treatment.<br>Because thousands of young people every year are forced to leave their land in search of a job and emigrate elsewhere.<br>So I ask myself: shouldn't the right to health belong to all Italian citizens?": shares the artist.<br> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</div><div><strong>Obiettivo 10 – Ridurre le diseguaglianze</strong></div><div>Attorep, con i suoi ritratti romantici che conducono alla riflessione alle relazioni umane sempre più fragili, ha interpretato il Global Goal numero 10, ovvero <strong><em>Ridurre le diseguaglianze</em></strong>. L’opera muraria rappresenta <strong>due volti</strong>, posti uno di fronte all’altro, non identificabili per razza, etnia e sesso grazie all’astrazione del colore. Le due figure si guardano negli occhi, con uno sguardo di affetto, di amore e di inclusione.&nbsp;<br>"Le disuguaglianze possono essere derivanti da genere, posizione geografica, età, etnia, disabilità, orientamento sessuale, classe sociale e religione, continuano a esistere all’interno e fra i diversi Paesi, condizionando parità di accesso, opportunità e esiti. In alcune parti del mondo, queste disparità stanno diventando più evidenti.<br>Io sono nato e vivo attualmente in Calabria, e credo che noi cittadini calabresi sicuramente siamo meno fortunati di altri cittadini che magari vivono nel nord del paese o all’estero, e sapete perché ?<br>Perché se hai un problema di salute e hai bisogno di cure, o sei fortunato oppure devi farti 1000 km almeno per ricevere le cure necessarie.<br>Perché migliaia di giovani ogni anno sono costretti a lasciare la propria terra in cerca di un lavoro ed emigrare altrove.<br>Allora mi domando: ma il diritto alla salute non dovrebbe essere di tutti i cittadini italiani?": condivide l'artista</div>

Goal 10 – Reduce inequalities

<div>Plants and flowers that rise from the cracked concrete to the sky and take up the entire facade of the branch office of the Liceo Scientifico Statale Francesco D’Assisi. The work, signed by street artist Etnik, is called 'Botanica Resistente', and is the first entirely "onlife" activity of 'Uno, niente, Centocelle', the winning project of the Mibact Cultura Futuro Urbano call born from the collaboration between the high school Romano, proponent, and the two partners Fusolab 2.0 and Flyer with the support of a.DNA, Enea, Legacoop, CooperACTiva and Ccpc. tti.<br><br>"After almost a year of forced stop due to the pandemic, during which it was possible to carry out only a few online workshops, the activities were able to gradually resume only in the last month with some" hybrid "workshops online / in person", reads in the note issued on the matter.&nbsp;<br><br>The title refers to the original name of Viale Palmiro Togliatti which, until about 1979, was known as Viale della Botanica. A direct reference, therefore, to the toponymy that characterizes the whole district of Centocelle with its streets named after plants, trees and flowers.<br><br>"Etnik's work is undoubtedly based on the irremediable antithesis between architecture and nature: in the mural the concrete blocks, the asphalt and the artificial works succumb to the natural elements, giving life to a slow but gradual reconquest of the spaces taken away from nature ”, continues the note. However, "Botany Resistant" has multiple readings. "Those plants and flowers represented by the Italian street artist, known and printed all over the world, also want to symbolize the ability of the inhabitants of Centocelle to react after the fires at the Electric Sheep, at the Baraka Bistrot and other commercial activities in 2019. More in in general, the symbolism used is a tribute to those who take action in their own territories in defense of the common space for the dissemination of culture, inclusion and social interaction. A feeling that is also the engine of the 'One, none, Centocelle' project ".<br><br></div>

Many in the neighborhood censored this subject, thinking it was a representation of the area that has long been afflicted by a chronic emergency linked to waste disposal.

The Third Man

<div>The name of the area, Pigneto, is due to the presence of a long row of pine trees, planted by the noble Caballini family and placed along the wall of the eighteenth-century Villa Serventi, while the main street of the district is the homonymous via del Pigneto, which runs zigzagging from a few hundred meters outside Porta Maggiore.<br>The old SNIA factory holds some turbulent history, risen on the ashes of an old factory established in the 1920s, one of the first big factories in Italy. An invasive construction policy in the surrounding area, led to an unexpected flood in 1992, and to the formation of a lake.<br>Recently, the people managing the occupied ex-factory have joined the locals to defend the lake Lago Ex-Snia and the surrounding area that has become a public park.

Fintan Magee

<div>A wall of over 16 meters on an Ater building in Via Cristoforo Numai, painted on the occasion of the artist's personal exhibition at the Varsi gallery, in collaboration with the Muracci Nostri collective, already very active in the neighborhood. Titled "The Roadkill", the work depicts a little girl holding up a large deer head. As often happens in the artist's poetry, inspiration comes from his childhood memory. "I was very impressed - said Magee - from a story that my neighbors told me when I was 7. They told me they had hit a deer. I didn't know there were these animals in Australia. My mother explained to me that they had been introduced by the Europeans and they were a plague: they carried diseases and devoured the plants on which the kangaroos were fed. But despite everything - he concludes - I could not fail to feel sorry for such beautiful animals ".</div>
