It’s been a long time coming for both this message and the messenger. This Tuesday 27 artists, who have been living and decorating the streets of Barcelona for years will come together to show what they got with canvases and other indoor works.

Parisian artist Ludo's project called "Nature's Revenge" speaks about the mutations nature might go through to deal with everyday human agression and pollution.
