Street Art Cities

The Zaspa mural is the largest work in the history of Uruguayan muralism. It depicts a rooster whose comb is meant to evoke the silhouette of Gdańsk, alongside a Polish girl helping a Uruguayan boy achieve his dreams. On the boy’s shirt, in addition to the Uruguayan flag, there are pins showing a cup for drinking yerba mate - the most popular South American infusion - the Palacio Salvo, Montevideo’s most recognizable building, a paint roller, and the artists themselves holding hands.
