Vandalism or Art?


As can be seen from this picture, there is a painting on a 3 storey building. The painting is of a girl looking as if she is watering the tree that is placed at the corner of the building. The colours used in colouring the girl are all very vibrant, a contrast to the suroounding of the building, which is very dull. Hence, the painting of the girl stands out from the surroundings. But the real question is, do people see this as a form of art or vandalism? In this modern day that we live in, this form of art is more appreciated as people now are more aware and understanding to what art is. However, the older generation, may not quite be as accepting towards this form of art. The generation that they live in is more cultured and they don't really see the point of painting on buildings when there is  papers.  As an art student, I am glad to see that art is more acknowledged than it was before as this gives every art enthusiast an opportunity to explore and discover art at a whole new level, without any boundaries.
