mural “Capax Infiniti” - Created by Faith47

mural “Capax Infiniti” - Created by Faith47
this woman has been gracing our downtown for years, classing up the place

viewable due to an open parking lot. now construction has begun on a building in that parking lot, but i'm happy to see that it looks like they are at least going to preserve the art. unknown how visible it will be in the end.

credit to the muralist: Created by Faith47, one of the most famous female street and graffiti artists in the world. Entitled “Capax Infiniti” (“Holding the Infinite” in Latin), the South African muralist painted this beautiful piece showing a ghost-like woman with her back turned to us.” — Street Art News and Wikipedia.

[I put a PIP with a link to someone's photo of this art work before construction began - worth seeing! - for some reason the PIP doesn't show the image directly, but it does link to the right place if you click on it.] May have been installed in 2014 or thereabouts.

Günter Klaus, aNNa schramm, Rainer Wahl, Filippo Tosi and 27 other people have particularly liked this photo

Thanks so very much. I was happy that the covering was a color that made the photo work - ha!

What happened in the end? Was it saved, is it still visible after the construction. It's a beautiful painting.

I will have to take another look. The last time I looked it was still visible and the building construction was happening. I will let you know!

It is still there, but not as easily seen anymore. But at least they didn't totally cover it up.
