WOOL | Covilhã Urban Art Festival: A New Horizon
The WOOL | Covilhã Urban Art Festival, originating in Covilhã in 2011, transitioned its artistic prowess to new geographies and projects due to various circumstantial reasons. Amid this transition, the festival found a welcoming home in Lisbon at LXFactory, a hub renowned for its creativity and artistry.
The Mural’s Significance
“Carry” stands out as an emblem of collaboration between KLIT and REGG during the WOOL ON TOUR’s 4th edition. Positioned at Rua Rodrigues de Faria within the LXFactory premises, this artwork spans 16 meters in width and 3.66 meters in height, captivating onlookers with its stunning amalgamation of aerosol and plastic paint.
Embracing Creativity Amidst Gray Facades
The mural’s placement in LXFactory, an erstwhile flourmill and printer industry, added a splash of color to the aged facades, infusing the area with newfound vibrancy and artistic energy. The collaboration of these two distinct artists brought forth a masterpiece that not only enhanced the visual landscape but also represented unity in diversity.
Acknowledging Artistic Inspiration
While not forming a collective, KLIT and REGG, inspired by their individual artistry, joined forces for this remarkable mural. Their combined efforts underscored the potency of artistic collaboration and left an indelible mark on the fabric of the Lisbon urban scene.
