Description

A pedestrian crossing sign and a biohazard marker, both repurposed by the city’s youth into canvases of street commentary. This playful yet provocative photograph captures the ever-evolving conversation between authority and creativity — where official signage becomes subverted by sticker art and humour.

Shot against the rising towers of Bogotá, the photo underscores contrast: order vs rebellion, structure vs spontaneity. The sticker-covered signs blur the line between caution and expression — graffiti artists and street vendors making their mark beneath the shadow of the city’s corporate skyline.

A raw document of resistance, wit and identity in Colombia’s urban core.

This bold artwork was captured by Ian Livesey on location in Colombia.
