Asuncion, Paraguay

Although initally Above and Ripo, along with Ethos from Brasil, were invited to paint two whole historical trains in the center of the capital their work quickly began to spread across the entire city.

Upon our arrival we noticed that there was hardly any graffiti in the city, and certainly none from any international artists. But the politicians have this city bombed. The elections are in full swing here and the walls show the evidence with endless political posters, painted names, and tags (that’s right, tags by politicans!).

You can’t escape…

The signs in this city are also an incredible source of inspiration. Nearly all are hand painted and unique.

I scream, you scream, Above screams for ice cream.

Before hitting the trains the artists hit the streets…

Ethos, Ripo, Above Grapixo style

Above: Too many the night before.

Ripo & Ethos: Porque!?

The artists are still currently painting on the trains and across the city. More to come very soon.
