There are a few different types of wall paintings that one may see while walking around a city: wall murals, graffiti, throw-ups, and tags for example, but also covered-up paintings, where illegal graffiti has been painted over.

These cover-ups might give an impression of badly painted, dirty, or messy walls to the untrained eye. But if we observe them with more than just the usual attention, what else can we figure out?

Dive into an analysis of color, typology, tolerance, collaboration, and much more.

The second edition in a series of six “bookzines” from Finland's Other Editions that invite you to explore your surroundings with a more curious gaze. Each is dedicated to a single theme relating to a street-level detail, proving that anything can be more interesting and meaningful than what it seems to be. 

Contributors include Adam Frint, Avalon Kalin, Ipin, HuH, Isabella De Silvestro, Magnus Lind Nielsen, Mathieu Tremblim, Nadine Gross, Oleksandr Burlaka, Stephen Burke, Svetlana Feoktistova, Thierry Furger, Tracey Trussell, and many more.
