a political message a jury made up of members of amnesty international and the urban nation museum in berlin chose catarina veyron enos design. but i really like about my profession that is you can be very playful and so there is a lot of the varsity us of being in the paper because i'm not doing we're all so in my daily routine life and some very small illustrations and sketches and. it's also very nice to see you with a size so far 1. for an ina worked on her mural for more than a week 1st she primed the wall then sketched the image and applied the colors. yes the result is what's being called a brave wall named in honor of a brave activist and politician here it's mariel franco she was a city councilor in rio de janeiro who fought for women's rights until she was shot

dead in 28 teen that was a shock for many women in brazil who took to the streets by the thousands in protest mariel franco continues to be an important role model for many her story has had an impact on catherine of our own nina as well. all along i wanted to make. a scene where to focus. possibilities of women shows inside which you can see in all of the small characters so it's basically about $3.00 to $1.00 guys also for women you can be a scientist you can be a musician and you can be i mean there is just about free choice. the brave while in berlin is one of many around the world they draw attention to courageous human rights activists artists in mexico lebanon and portugal have also sprayed or painted these murals in recent years so.

the fact that her mural serves as a daily reminder for the rights of women fills catarina verrone know with joy especially since the situation of women in her native russia is often difficult in russia we do not have. laws against domestic violence and we're still fighting for this and you cannot imagine how i'll bet it is and it's like it's time i'm reading carlos the story. it's not possible to stay indifferent to not total outcry about the. brave well in quotes reminds us to live courageously and have big dreams. i like to sing to station is the usual text and you can use it as a to write if you can try to bring some. patience so i was trying to be very clear we said we memorize all your life and you're only one person free to do

people in particular don't see a future in beirut or lebanon anymore think of the folks who really goes beyond the physical destruction and really destroyed something and people and. our friends our family. there are hard and souls and that the structure is much much harder to fix we 1st met constantine back at the 2900000000000 other talents program he'd worked as an editor along with cinematographer christopher own on the critically

acclaimed film capernaum. capernaum explores the plight of children living in the slums of beirut the nonprofessional actors were plucked from the streets and much of the film is shot from their perspective. the film won it can and was nominated for an oscar capernaum is an important story about children being denied their most fundamental rights. today constantine park wants. to process his own experiences in beirut he's currently developing the script for botox. a dark satire that takes aim at widespread corruption in lebanon it's a film about the fashion scene tries to highlight the nepotism and mismanagement behind the glass even near. if we want to help in any way it's by telling stories from here and it's also by making a film here and employing our friends in the film industry and like have you know

paintings are those with a spider sitting on a sheet of paper for example people are scared of them was well worth. stefan pap's artworks are in pits and he regularly publishes them on you tube this video of stefan creating a 3 d. tarantula garnered over 12000000 views. creating these amazing artworks requires a good eye and special techniques. after all optical illusions only work when you look at them from a certain angle. but. the main effect with these lego bricks is that i stretched them. so that when you put the painting down it looks as if the proportions are correct.

getting the details exactly right is important that means adding the scorpion's shadow and tiny hairs on its sting. finally stefan cuts off a bit of paper perfecting the optical illusions. that is really important for the 3 d. a factual it must look as if the object extends over the edge of the sheet of paper once it falls us into thinking the object isn't actually painted on the paper. and here's a 3 dimensional scorpion viewed from one side at a 45 degree angle change your perspective and the fact instantly vanishes stefan pops has ambitious plans for creating vast outdoor 3 d. art works. like creating a 3 d. pattern in a cornfield and then filming it from above with

a drone to capture this effect. so. as motif. whatever it is it will probably look amazingly realistic. illustrator and children's fantasy author of focus says she's leaving california because of climate change the german writer known for titles like in cart trade trading in her farm and avocado grove in malibu she says the drought and wildfires in california are a major factor in her decision now she's planning a new life in italy's tuscany region where she wants to keep inviting young authors and artists to stay with her. and just one more story before we go it's been 50 years since the british band queen got together with the late freddie mercury as their front man the group's surviving members are now celebrating by posting their greatest concerts each week on you tube i'll leave you now with
