ART ATTACK
What is so unique about art? Probably the way it inspires us and makes us think deep or maybe
the ability that it has to communicate with us without talking. Art is not about what we see, it is
about how it makes us feel and that is the power of all the beautiful murals all around Prishtina.
They give you all the feels.
This is one of the best murals from all those that I was able to visit and experience. Well who
doesn’t love dogs? I do and when I first saw this mural I immediately knew that I was going to
include it in this blog, first of all because of my love for dogs but also for the sorrow that I feel
for the street dogs in Prishtina because the welfare of them on the street is constantly
endangered and they are not taken care of. A shelter is everything they need. This mural
dedicated to them is so beautiful and it made me feel so good.
This mural filled my day with colors and happiness. “You are a nice human” is a phrase that
everyone needs to have written in their room so that they could read it everyday when they wake
up. It is a reminder of our vulnerability and kindness that we all own and that we just need more
reasons to show it up. I was smiling all the time while looking at this mural and I took tons of
photos of it. To whoever drew this: Thank you.
I literally screamed when I saw this mural. It immediately reminded me of one of my
favorite animated movies “The Iron Giant” I have watched it a million times and it is one of the
best parts of my childhood. I closed my eyes and for a moment I was little again, I was in my
living room with my little brother watching this and eating cookies. I felt nostalgic about those
good old days and as soon as I went home I put this one on tv and had one of the best evenings
ever. How I would love to meet the person who drew this mural!
The last and my favorite mural. Wow. What I felt while looking at this mural is hard to explain.
I almost cried. I keep thinking of people especially little kids who because of these kinds of
challenges that life brought upon them feel that they are different and they don’t fit in. This
mural shows in the best way how a little help or a nice word can turn rain into sunshine. It is so
meaningful and I love it so much. The color usage, the message that it conveys and everything
about it is so beautiful. The reason why I decided for this to be the last photo is because I want
this to be a message to everyone who is struggling and I want to say that you are not alone and it
is okay to ask for help.
If you have reached the end of this blog you know exactly what beautiful murals Prishtina is
surrounded with and I encourage all of you to spend a free day walking around the city and
catching a glimpse of all these beautiful masterpieces.
P.s Don’t forget to take photos! <3
