I resumed the mural hunt after brunch. 

The simple logo carries a powerful message. The central government initiated the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan in 2014 with the objective of a Clean India by 2019  and who else but Gandhi can be its inspiration. Apart from Ahimsa and Satyagraha, Gandhi was also a crusader for cleanliness and effective sanitation. His teachings and principles are more relevant in these times.

 

Now, what is over there?  There are birds everywhere. For a moment I thought I was seeing a poster of the classic Hitchcock movie  The Birds.

# Free Oleg Sentsov

On By ResaIn Paste-Ups, Street Art28 Comments

It’s been a long, long time since I found heavily political street art in Toronto.

This piece is on an indiscriminately tagged stretch of construction site board fence.

Sentsov is a Ukrainian film director who Putin put in jail. It was 2 months after Russia illegally occupied Crimea. He is serving 20 years.

He is on a hunger strike, and will die. The most recent article I can find is in Variety Magazine – July 10, 2018. Click on the LOGO to read the article.

Here is an earlier article from June 4 in The New Yorker.

I respect insects. However, if one gets caught in my hair, I freak out.

After the fence is an indent, which houses the garage doors.

I’m sure Dudeman has painted the skulls and daisy-like flowers, and Bacon has painted the rose, peony and peacock feather. However, Dudeman may have painted this diaphanous beauty.

The inspiration for most of the title for this post is a very wee book I own. It was hand- written by a man to his wife in 1913. Visit The Language Of Flowers by clicking on this sentence, or on the cover of the book.

The page is dedicated to Paul Militaru If you have ever visited his photo blog, you know why.

Thank you to Dudeman & Bacon!
