The Argentinean artist works with a restricted palette. Focusing almost exclusively on the drawing technique, Hyuro lights up controversies through her symbolic pieces. The mural above has been spotted in Atlanta for the Living Walls Project and got people talking. Working with the metamorphosis of  a women from nude to escaping wolf  Hyuro’s work caught the neighbor’s attention. The mural is located close to a Church and a Mosque which created a new debate on censorship.

Hyuro story telling skills highlights the relationship between humans, contemporary society, animals and nature. She is a member of the graffiti writer community. Her hunting murals gets us thinking about humanity.

Do you think her work should be censured?

The Bien Urbain Festival is well underway in Besançon, France with the intention of making people question the use of public space: How do we enjoy public space? Where is the place for art when grey walls and advertisements are everywhere? The festival is bringing out some of the most influential urban artists worldwide, including, among others, Escif, Moneyless, Nelio, Ox and San.

Also taking part in the Bien Urbain Festival is legendary Spanish artist Sam3, and he’s managed to catch our eye after completing two stunning pieces this week. Sam3’s newest murals are mono-color as in the first he manages to paint with only black, and in the second, only white. Additionally, the technique implemented is quite unique as Sam3 paints only the background as an outline, allowing  the original wall to be the focus of the final image. Check out more pics of Sam3’s work at the Bien Urbain festival after the jump.
