Faith47 "A Letter To The City Of Cape Town From Blikkiesdorp" New Street Piece In Cape Town, South Africa

Symphony Way Temporary Relocation Area in Cape Town, better known by its nickname Blikkiesdorp, is a relocation camp made-up of corrugated iron shacks. Blikkiesdorp, which is Afrikaans for “Tin Can Town”, was given its name by residents because of the row-upon-row of tin-like one room structures throughout the settlement.
Yesterday, South African painter Faith47 painted this strong piece in Blikkiesdorp which reads "Land, Bread, Housing, Education, Clothing, Justice, Peace." No extra comment needed...
