Bear Hug?

Rochesterians are abuzz over one of the latest murals in their local “Wall Therapy” project. Described as “community-level intervention in the form of mural art in the public space”, the project brings world-renowned artists to Rochester to bring new life to public spaces in the form of murals. One of the latest pieces, two bears in the St. Paul neighborhood by Belgium graffiti artist Roa, has been polarizing. Some feel it’s plain inappropriate, while others appreciate the artistic merit of the large-scale piece. We in the Barbour Rochester office will have to see it in person before we weigh in, but art is meant to be thought-provoking, so it’s certainly effective on that level. Check out more of Roa’s wonderful work here.
