Entitled “The Walk”, the project was assessed positively, both by locals and tram passengers. Because of the tremendous response, the authorities decided to extend the project by another 3,000 square meters in order to create the continent’s biggest graffiti fresco.



The organization Tarantino coordinate the works. Set up to keep Brussels youngsters off the street, Tarantino is devoted to legal street graffiti. The organisation managed to get hold of some of Belgium’s best graffiti artists.



Surrounded by the Atomium, the Heysel Stadium and the Japanese Tower, the tram stop is located in Laken (Brussels, Belgium).
