"These are old urban equipament (called "fradinhos") put on sidewalks of Rio de Janeiro streets to stop cars parking on sidewalk. Those have 30 years old nobody liked the idea when they were put, and 2 years ago when I started to paint them they were complete invisible to the Rio de Janeiro Citizens's eyes, and now some of them are full of life and all of them started to be looked again, but Im still the only one painting them, kind of respect by the other artists as I was the first one. There are thousands of those fradinhos and I think it's a really good piece to paint even being 2 feet tall."... Subzero
