Faded paint, Durres. Albania. May 22

in StreetArt2 years ago

Considering that Durres is the second most populated city in Albania, I have to say from my wanderings the quality of street art was pretty dire!

Maybe I was in the wrong place, on a route march to see some fucking roman ruins, but even so when I did break away from the herd the landscape was bereft of beauty, anyways, here are a few bits and pieces.

I guess at one time these could have been quite richly coloured, eight years in the elements and I think I would look faded too!

Those are in remarkably good condition considering they're 8 years old. There's some cool street art close to where I used to live and bits and pieces here too, I always feel that they bring a bit more life to the place.

cheers @emma-h , thanks for engaging. Totally get your sentiment about bringing colour and life to an otherwise drab blank space

Thanks to your post I actually found some of that street art and might write a post on it, I admire the artists who put so much effort into it, it makes me happy to see it.

Not much around indeed… or you were, like you say, in the wrong area.
Most of them look pretty weathered. All are faded and damaged.
So different in style.
You did find some lettering hehehe 🤭
Hope more luck in your next travels 😎
Happy Monday @grindle

cheers @littlebee4 I have had some good finds since. It is great taking the shots, so simple, the time consuming bit is sorting and uploading, still, it will keep me busy through the dark winter!!

Cheers @grindle 😎 yes, I soooo know hahaha 🤣
It is editing and sorting the photos that is the most work and than writing the posts.
Indeed good for the winter days to come.
So glad to hear you found some great ones since. Looking forward to seeing them. 😊
Enjoy your Tuesday!
