HERA and RASCALS create monumental mural in Slovakia

German street artist HERA and the Bratislava based duo RASCALS have collaborated on a large scale mural in Považská Bystrica, Slovakia. The artwork, titled “We Can Be Fragile and Strong at the Same Time,” was created for Destination All Inclusive and Trenčín.

The piece draws inspiration from the work of Imro Weiner-Kráľ, a Slovak surrealist painter born in Považská Bystrica. The composition features a wide eyed child holding a pencil, a theatrical mask, and red orange lilies, using these elements to explore themes of vulnerability, resilience, and identity.
