Is it legal? The artist in the video got hassled by the cops.

Nice artwork. Too bad it all got destroyed. It's on You Tube, so not gone to waste.

OH... okay. took me a while to get what's going on. lol

He's making art by cleaning the dirty stuff on the walls, instead of using paint.

Thats cool and all but I bet if he acctually tried to design something nice instead of a bunch of skulls there might be a chance it could acctually stay. But who know they might clean that stuff every month..

he's essentially cleaning the place so idk what the problem is

By the looks of it... I don't think they clean it monthly.

thats pretty cool,

and like what was said before, if he did something normal that wasnt skulls, i doubt there would have been much of a problem with popo and city

Well sure but it's just sketchy if you were doing something like that.

it's also brazil so he's lucky he didn't just get shot and dumped in the river.

also, is that a publicly accessible walkway? is he allowed to be there or is he trespassing?

also, it depends on what the technical definition of "graffiti" is in brazil. whether it's creating images on public/private property or whether it's the narrower "marking a surface", etc...

pretty sad about the artwork being washed away though but then again, as a graffiti artist, he must know that his work wouldn't last (especially artwork that's so easily washed off)... just too bad that it seemed it only lasted a few hours...

Looked really nice. It's a shame it was destroyed.

I think the main issue is trespassing and causing a distraction to drivers in the tunnel not the actual artwork itself although skulls might not have been the best expression of choice.

Berz out.
