Jien nixtieq nistaqsi fuq sewwieqa li jhallu l-kurzita teghlibom u jitilfu l-attenzjoni minn fuq it-triq biex iharsu lejn dawn il-pitturi. Dan mhux distrazzjoni wkoll?

Malta was praised not to have any graffiti problems,....then someone who thinks knows about art commissions this work making the village look shabby and more like a slum area. try introducing some oild drums and hobos so they can light a fire to keep themselves warm. WHERE IS MEPA?????

Out of keeping and looks a right mess.

we are a country steeped in culture and history yet the walls depict Gandhi, MLK, etc?!! its nothing personal aganist these men but they have no link to us, why not depict some local scenes/ people (and i am not talking fabrizio faniello) but Agatha Barbara, Joseph Callejja the Knights of Malta, the temples, Dun Karm Psaila

this looks like Detroit Michigan ...maybe some more bright colours and touristic theme or music ... sorry its ok but not in awe either ...

I'm wondering why? What has Martin Luther King, Mahatma Ghandi etc got to do with Malta? Also things like this are a cause of accidents due to drivers rubber necking as they go past. To me they just look like graffiti. Perhaps a better idea would have been to paint trees instead. That way people would remember what a tree looks like as they seem to be disappearing fast in Malta.

Great initiative. This should be nationwide!

I agree with the initative. They are painting on blank walls that are surrounding a building site.

Excellent idea for livening blank walls. Much better than those annoying flashing advertisements that change abruptly from a dark picture to a brightly lit one like the one that faces drivers going up the hill from Msida towards the University roundabout.

Lovely, what a fabulous way to perk up the environment. Maybe some other councils should follow suit.

Prime Fgura area which resembles some Brixton derelict train station. Come on Byron, Fgura deserves a lot better!

What's missing is a few ghetto blasters, and we will begin to look like Jamaica or London, just to mention a few. It's an eyesore, full stop.

Arriva bus apssengers waiting at similar bus stops end up looking like murals-or statues- waiting so long for buses that dont comply with the their timetables or else dont show up at all !

Well done goes to a very talented and young artist - Justin Bonnici - who's behind the great artistic work. Keep it up!

This are legalized wall graffiti that are an eye sore. They make the place look dirty and plus they distract drivers passing by, like the one in San Gwann.

The council is doing a good Job, Welldone Byron Camilleri keep it up doing the good work.

Very nice work. It is a very good idea. There are something similar in Bella Vista road , San Gwann. These are much better than the ones at the University subway system.

Nice Idea... however they could have cleaned the benches after!

L-ewwel waħda li saret kienet l-aktar waħda addattata għax saret fi zmien li kien hemm dawk il-ħafna problemi rigward id-dewmien li kien qed ikun hemm biex wieħed jirkeb fuq il-karozzi ta' l-Arriva . Għalhekk kien sublimi u ezatt ħafna min gietu l-idea li jagħmel dik il-mural biswit li-staġe ta' kju ta' nies qed jistennew il-karozza tal-linja .
