Untitled (Stay safe)
didactic; hand washing; face masks; public service announcement
Didactic murals that explain, in clear visual language, the importance of hand washing and face masks in preventing the spread of the coronavirus.
Brian Musasia Wanyande/Msale
From The Guardian: "A street artist called Msale has taken it upon himself to create giant murals bringing public health messages directly to the overcrowded Mathare slum in Nairobi. With half a million people living in such 'a squeezed area' social distancing is quite impossible to achieve, says Msale, so he is providing information for people on how to keep safe in the 'simplest, clearest' way he knows."

Put a Mask on Fuckers
put a mask on; threat; instructions; zen garden
On a black wall, a woman with an artistically distorted face raises a fist in the air next to spray painted text which reads "PUT A MASK ON FUCKERS." Her other hand is holding a frying pan, as a threat. The woman appears to be older and is wearing a loose fitting blue dress and sandals with socks.
Underneath the painting, on the sidewalk, is a black painted oval consisting of 6 concentric oval lines. It is in the form of an "urban zen garden," painted by @sacsix. @sacsix has painted multiple "urban zen gardens," but is interesting that these two paintings are juxtaposed.

Cheers
Safety; masks; beer; coronavirus; corona; ppe
A man in full hazmat gear, including rubber suit and gas mask, holds up a beer with the title Cheers behind him. This painting is a humorous reference to the similarities between Corona beer and the coronavirus in terms of the name. This also represents the lengths people have to go to to protect themselves from the virus.

Confronting the virus
The coronavirus is represented as a large, angry green head with spikes, and is animated by some men who hold the strings of a puppet. A healthcare worker holding a vaccine faces off with the virus. A rendition of the earth is situated behind the healthcare worker, indicating that the vaccine, administered by essential workers, will protect the world.
