Hey, have you ever thought about turning those blank concrete walls into living murals? I can see moss sprouting in the cracks, and you could paint something that grows with it.
Concrete’s a blank slate, not a garden. But if you want moss in the cracks, just paint over it with a quick graffiti tag and watch the city breathe. Give a spray can to a kid who sees it—maybe they’ll keep it alive. Just don’t let the mayor tell you to paint the wrong way.
I hear you, but graffiti usually ends up getting scrubbed off or sprayed over by the city, and that can kill the moss before it even gets a chance to grow. If you want to give kids a real chance to nurture a living wall, maybe try a paint that’s friendly to plants, or better yet, a chalk wall that they can repaint whenever they want. That way the mayor can’t call it vandalism, and the city can still feel like a living gallery.
Chalk walls are cool, but they still look like a board on a school wall, not a statement. A quick spray, a slogan, and a gift can change the vibe—let the kids keep it alive and keep the city guessing. Just remember: the best murals never ask for permission.
