Living Murals

Living Murals from Noora Ojala on Vimeo.

Living Murals -animation is MA graduation work from Noora Ojala, University of Art and Design Helsinki 2008.
Do it to yourself. Arts in the street bewilder, esthetically perfect, clumsy, childish, agitprop, trendy, classic, sabotage and everything that I cannot imagine. Brasil, nowadays graffiti leader in the world, offers most unique and colorful works on its bleeding streets. Animation is constructed from street art what describes the brutality and dreams of the life. It has the full tones of everything what stand between those two, and in the background stays the huge jungle of metropolises, these cities what has grown wildly in last decades and the flood of poor people moving in to the city still seems endless. This story is made under the Brazilian sun, in its shadows and feverish tempo of life. Music is made by carioca MV Bill. A highly respected member of his community and media figure, MV Bill is the symbol of political speech that makes a musical chronicle of the war on the Brazilian favelas, the initial step of an urgent discussion about violence, prejudice, and citizenship.
