      Tellas x 2Bleene in Argentiera, Italy

      by

      Italian artist Tellas has just completed a new project in Argentiera, Sardinia, Italy. Entitled “FronteMare” this piece is a collaboration between Tellas, Puerto Rican artist 2Bleene and the architects from Landworks, who transformed a huge parking lot to a new area that works as a plaza and basket/pickleball.“FronteMare – Tellas says – wants to be like a mirror, a reflection of what is around the work itself. The nuances and gradations of the sea and vegetation, the mistral that blows fresh and strong, and the mining architecture, are the main three elements that give life to a composition that plays and interacts with the landscape”.Tellas has made an indelible mark on the street art world with his unique style and profound connection to nature.Growing up in a place (Sardinia, Italy) that is steeped in history and surrounded by lush landscapes, it’s no wonder that nature plays a central role in Tellas’s work. With a unique approach to nature-inspired art and an ability to seamlessly blend his work with the urban environment, Tellas’s art is characterized by its fluid and organic forms, often resembling the shapes and patterns found in nature. His work often features abstract representations of forests, trees, and plant life, and he is known for his use of earthy tones and natural materials. His style evokes a sense of tranquility and harmony, inviting viewers to connect with the natural world.One of the most remarkable aspects of Tellas’s work is his ability to adapt and integrate his art into the urban environment. He doesn’t impose his art on the city; instead, he collaborates with it. He carefully selects locations and surfaces that complement his style and make his pieces feel like they belong there, whether it’s on a decaying wall, a forgotten alleyway, or a crumbling building.2Bleene was born and raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico. She describes her work as an expressive contemporary abstraction between her encounters with flowers/nature and her years of work as a graphic designer. Her process begins with documenting floral elements in her island and travels to then transform them into long lasting memories, color palettes and textures.

      “Vía Oeste” by Pablo S. Herrero in Salamanca, Spain

      by

      Pablo S. Herrero’s recent project, “Vía Oeste,” has brought three stunning murals to the picturesque town of Villavieja de Yeltes in Salamanca, Spain. Titled “Ilex Umbra,” these murals pay tribute to the significant oak trees in the area, offering a poignant connection between art and nature.However, beneath the surface beauty, these murals also shed light on the challenges faced by this region, including depopulation and the controversial fight against a proposed uranium mine, which many argue offers false promises of a brighter future.In a region grappling with the exodus of its young population and the looming specter of environmental degradation, Herrero’s murals serve as a powerful reminder of the enduring beauty and importance of nature. Through “Ilex Umbra,” he highlights the significance of these ancient oaks and the urgent need to protect them. In doing so, Herrero’s art not only captivates the eye but also sparks crucial conversations about the intersection of art, nature, and the future of this beautiful yet challenged town in Salamanca.Scroll down below to see more photos of Pablo S. Herrero’s most recent project, More

      Helen Bur in Boulogne-sur-Mer, France

      by

      UK based artist Helen Bur has just completed a new painting in Boulogne-Sur-Mer, France. Entitled “Shift of the centre” the mural, approx 12x9mt, was painted for the Boulogne-Sur-Mer street art project organised by Amziane Abid. With a strong connotation linked to the concept of motherhood and revaluation of one’s ego, a mother draws a new center around her child, to signify new boundaries of one’s love and one’s perspective.Through her art, Helen Bur shows that beauty can be a catalyst for change, inspiring individuals to take action and make a positive impact on the world around them. Each piece tells a story, encapsulating the essence of the neighborhood it inhabits. Her murals often reflect the history, culture, and aspirations of the community, forging a connection between the art and its surroundings. This ability to bridge the gap between art and life is what makes Helen Bur’s work so magnetic. Her unique blend of creativity, storytelling, and social consciousness has redefined the boundaries of art, showing that the streets can be both a canvas and a stage for meaningful expression. With every stroke of her brush and every splash of color, she unveils the soul of the city, inviting us all to look deeper, think harder, and embrace the beauty that surrounds us, even in the most unexpected of places.

      WRDSMTH supporting WGA Strike

      by

      In the bustling entertainment capital of the world, Los Angeles, the Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike has become a defining moment in the ongoing struggle for writers’ rights. A city that thrives on creativity and storytelling is facing a significant disruption as writers unite to demand fair treatment, fair wages, and better working conditions. The WGA represents thousands of writers across film, television, and digital media. In recent years, these writers have expressed growing concerns over issues like stagnant wages, long working hours, lack of healthcare benefits, and the ever-increasing demands from studios and production companies. Dissatisfaction reached a boiling point when negotiations with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) failed to yield meaningful results. In light of these unresolved concerns, the WGA leadership decided to call for a strike, viewing it as a necessary step to draw attention to the disparities in the industry and press for meaningful change. The writers’ demands encompassed fair compensation, reasonable working hours, and provisions for job security in an evolving entertainment landscape dominated by streaming platforms and digital media.Public opinion is a critical aspect of any strike, and the WGA has been actively trying to garner support from fans, fellow industry professionals, and the wider public. Social media has played a crucial role in amplifying the writers’ message, with hashtags like #WGAstrike trending on various platforms. Writers have been sharing their personal stories, shedding light on the harsh realities of their profession, and explaining why their demands are justified. WRDSMTH is supporting the @WGAWest / @SAGAftra strike placing some renegade work all around Los Angeles, including Hollywood, Universal City and Culver City. ”The pasteups were done on utility boxes because I noticed a plethora of  “blank” boxes across the street or in close proximity of the picket lines, which makes for A+ placement in support.”Take a look at more images below and check back with us soon for more updates.
