Beirut captivates with its unique wall paintings. The city landscapes come alive, transforming concrete buildings into dynamic canvases full of culture and emotion.
Wall art in Beirut
Wall art in Beirut is something incredible, you know. Just incredible! You walk the streets, and suddenly bam! - a painting on the wall. There it is in front of you. Such bright, vivid colors just scream about the city, about the people, about the culture. It's simply breathtaking.
- Colors. They are so different, but they seem to help each other.
- Themes. From historical to modern.
- Texture. Sometimes they add volume, and it's exciting.
Posters and their magic
You know what else surprised me? Posters! Yes, yes, they are them. Posters with views of the city, in which Beirut is at your fingertips. I have one hanging on my wall, it reminds me of the trip, of the amazing people I met. Once in a cafe I saw a poster of the sea hanging on the wall, and I thought: "Beirut is so unpredictable and diverse," and this is conveyed through the posters.
When I look at a painting or canvas print, I remember those noisy streets, the smells of spicy food, the sounds of music coming from the cafe. Yes, Beirut has its own magic and the wall images convey it exactly.
Canvas prints: the highlight of the interior
And how much can be done with a canvas print. Well, seriously. I have a canvas hanging at home with a view of the sea at sunset. Every time I come home, it's as if I'm returning to that moment in Beirut, as if the sea is calling again. Emotions splash like waves. Sometimes the thought flashes through my head: "if only the wall could talk", but each line and each color would probably have its own story to tell.
In a word, Beirut is a completely different universe, and what its wall art and posters do to a person cannot be described in words. I want to write and write, but the picturesque rhythms of the city should be seen and felt with my own eyes. I think it's worth it!
