<div>The project is a giant painting on the roof of Tartus's most central shopping mall Kaubamaja. A geodetic sign for large-leaved forest oriented along north-south axis. A person looking at it from above should get confused weather he/she sees a topographic map or a picture. Ironically it is placed on town's biggest shopping mall suggesting it doesn't exist but the forest grows there. (http://www.svetabogomolova.com/linnamets.html)</div>

<div>A large mural called Supilinn 15 created for street art festival Stencibility by Polish artists Sepe and Chazme connects the cultures of Poland and Tartu. The mural is inspired by the works of two Polish artists born in Tartu in the beginning of the 20th century. One is the famous Spodek building created by architect Jerzy Hryniewiecki (among others) and the other is a well-known painting titled Autobus by painter Bronisław Linke that has become quite symbolic.&nbsp;</div>

<div>Two presidents – Lennart Meri and Toomas Hendrik Ilves – on bridge pillars by Edgar Tedresaar. The portraits became notorious when one night Ilves's head was replaced with the head of Vladimir Putin, the president of Russia. After much media attention the head was covered with a Guy Fawkes mask and eventually the city decided to intervene, resulting in the grey rectangle opposite the portrait of president Meri. Work done during street art festival Stencibility in 2015.&nbsp;<br>Photo by www.suurjalutuskaik.blogspot.com</div>
