Calle Layered

Description

A timeworn wall turned public noticeboard, this street scene in Bogotá is a collage of city life — flyers, posters, offers, stickers and graffiti all fighting for space and attention. Beneath peeling layers of tape and print, you’ll find services, slogans, and subcultures side by side. A Claro prepaid phone offer sits loudly in red, touting social media access and mobile data, while to the right a monochrome flyer promotes underground music artist Mella MoGerald, surrounded by icons of digital connection.

The words “fotocopias” (photocopies) hover as a ghostly header above the fray, hinting at the humble service origins of the space. This urban wall is more than just a visual jumble — it’s a snapshot of daily life in Colombia, where commerce, creativity, and community all co-exist in public view.

A quiet chaos captured, framed by street culture and survival.

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