Inspired by Mnemosyne, the Greek goddess of memory, this mural explores the connection between memory, dreams and imagination - bringing together mythology, Romanticism and modern graphic art.
Memories rarely come back exactly as they happened. They get mixed with feelings, images and fragments, and can change a little every time we remember them. We wanted the mural to play with this idea through layers of colour, classical imagery, abstract shapes and contemporary elements. The golden chalice also connects to the story. In ancient Greek tradition, drinking from the waters of Mnemosyne was believed to preserve memory. Here, the chalice becomes a vessel for memories, experiences and dreams - the things we collect and carry with us over time.
Within this world, we mixed the styles of three artists, each bringing something different to the story.
BeNeR’s Romantic Rebellion takes inspiration from Romanticism and traditional painting and brings it into a contemporary, urban world. Dekor’s graffiti and abstract forms bring movement, colour and a strong graphic energy, while my Modern Mythology takes gods and goddesses from ancient mythologies and reimagines them in the present.
Together, these different styles create a place where past and present can sit side by side - classical imagery mixed with graffiti, abstraction and contemporary culture. Three different approaches brought together to tell one story about memory and the way we carry it with us. A fresh piece by @dekor_one @bener1graffiti @mister_copy was super fun to paint and put this together ❤️🫶❤️ a @nvs_graffiti_crew production taken in Hannover, Germany by @dekor_one
