"Le acciughe fanno il pallone" (Anchovies make the ball) by Italian artist duo Caktus & Maria https://instagram.com/caktusemaria/ at Via Certosa 13 (north side), Certosa, Genoa, Italy in August 2019 as part of the On The Wall project of @walkthelinegenoa. Photos taken October 2021.

"Inspired by a song by De André, the artists wanted to represent the strength that comes from the union of many small anchovies, which illuminated by the moon (personified in a sweet woman's face), shield and protect themselves from possible external attacks. A wish (and a mirror) of a neighborhood that has seen in the union of many the reason and the drive to continue fighting and going."
