The Argentine street artist from Hurlingham, Province of Buenos Aires often creates portraits or works by classical masters on walls with spray in his own style with bright colours giving the pieces a more modern feel.

The artwork is proving a big hit with passers-by, cyclists and motorists as it’s located on the busy corner of Avenida Cordoba and Av Juan. B. Justo.

Could it be a message to motorists to pause to think or enjoy a moment of silence in the chaos of the big city?
