Artists use street murals to change image of violent Caracas slum via SABCNewsOnline

The mural will eventually cover up a campaign ad for a state governor and an image of the eyes of late President Hugo Chavez, an artistic response to the ruling party’s iconography scattered across public spaces in the struggling OPEC nation.

“The idea is for people to feel that this is not a place of delinquents, but of people who work,” said Solymar, who goes by the nickname Dagor, while working on a mural on a recent August afternoon. Venezuela has one of South America’s highest homicide rates at 56.8 per 100 000 inhabitants, according to the United Nations – and Petare’s homicide rate is nearly twice that, according to the non-profit Venezuelan Observatory of Violence.
