Mauro Fassino Mural In Turin, Italy

Italian Architect and painter Mauro Fassino sent us these images of his recently completed mural. The massive piece of a pigeon sitting on a ledge he painting into the structure can be found in his hometown of Turin. The piece is the result of an international competition organized by the Foundation ContradaTorino Onlus, a non-profit organization established in 2008 at the initiative of the Municipality of Turin, the Turin University and the Foundation San Paolo Bank. The piece is part of a larger project involving a block in Turin called Spina 3, which is undergoing a strong redevelopment.

According to Mauro, the piece is “a metaphor, in my view, of migration and of some social problems that historically have affected this area.”
