Mextonia 2017

Spray cans and wall painting on wall, 2017

The Blue History was created during Mextonia, an international transgraffiti and muralism festival in Tallinn in 2017.

The mural is a visual journey through Estonian history, painted in a blue, black and white palette inspired by the colours of the Estonian flag. It combines symbols of nature, mythology, culture, national identity and Estonia’s path to independence.

The story moves from ancient Estonia and medieval landmarks through the national awakening, Soviet era and Singing Revolution to modern, technology-driven Estonia.

I painted the mural in five days.

During the festival, I also created a second mural featuring two mythical night children with flowering tree-like horns and a book, symbolising harmony, hope and a peaceful world.
