Last December, Argentinian street-artist Martin Ron painted a mural in the popular and colorful neighborhood of La Boca, in Buenos Aires. A destination for tourists and locals to enjoy a cluster of attractions. TitledProyecto Casa Amarilla”, the mural is a tribute to the culture and history of the neighborhood.

About the Mural

With each structure measuring 24 meters high by 12 long,  when finished, it will reflect “the passions” and tradition that signifies the city, such as football and tango.
For the mural, “Proyecto Casa Amarilla” Ron depicts a hyper realistic figure of a juggler to represent the challenges, falls and progression of the Italian immigrants who populated La Boca at the beginning of the 19th century. An interesting aspect of the artists designscape is the remarkable illustration layered in three visuals, that gives optimal movement and allows the viewer to feel like he’s in mid-juggle.
