I Thought This Building Mural,

looked quiet neat,


nothing like the usual graffiti that seems so popular that we see on buildings nowadays, it is the work of Brazilian street artist Alexandre Orion, he bases his urban street art from the 'pichaçao' (from niche, meaning tar), keeping to this theme Orion used paint mixed with soot from São Paulo to paint an over sized guru-like figure meditating in a lotus position on the façade of the empty savings and loan building in Frankfurt, Germany as part of an exhibition organised by the city administration showcasing the diversity of Brazilian graffiti art, well I thought it looked neat making the corner of the building look almost 2 dimensional.
