mural
A mural is a silent public screen upon which an artist’s ego and a city administrator’s indifference are projected across a building’s vacant wall. Celebrated as urban decoration, it is nevertheless doomed to become the site of cracks and graffiti rebellions within years. It gathers the gaze of thousands, yet only secures true attention in the fleeting moment after completion. Called "eternal beauty," it is in fact a single night’s vanity.
