While continuing the street art murals, the idea is to give a second breath to the festival so that it still gains in notoriety. Other artist invited to breathe some new life into the city are Case Maclaim, Fintan Magee, C215, Astro etc.

David Walker’s mural is the portrait of a young woman named Yuli. One recognizes the artist’s particular graffiti style, colourful layers forming a portrait that sometimes borders with hyperrealism.
