I sincerely hope that we do not end up living in the same world. I know starting off a criticism with an ad hominem attack is poor, but your comment is of the asine world of a true asshole.
The mural is a fine example of street art, and one of the things that makes living in East Oxford pleasant. It is well constructed, has a message and generally challenges at the same time. It is far more representative and important than any Tracy Enim or Chapman brothers work, and further more it is of and by the people of Oxford. It is art that belongs to the people of East Oxford and makes the place a damn site prettier than you bog-standard dull coloured pebble-dash.
I too watched the artists work together to paint it; and coming back later that night I witnessed loads of people simply stopping to admire and praise it. Art made good, accessible and interesting, part of the Cowley Road community - something rare, so a big thumbs up for street art in East Oxford. More of it, please.
I feel sorry you cannot appreciate the beauty at your feet, but then I suspect you are a troll bitter at your own lack of creative solutions so having to criticise others. Sad.
The badger at the bottom.

The cloud faces up at the top are my favourite, especially the two on the right.
Thanks!

"it makes the place look like a impoverisherished 3rd world country"
1. spray paints are pretty damn expensive, and the time to develop the skill is a luxury, and for this reason:
2. 3rd world countrys are generally not covered in amazing graf
3. Some of the most breathtaking places in the world are thrice removed: who wouldnt want to live there? ay?
so, if the only people complaining are moderately racist halfwits, i for one couldnt give a shit about their opinion!
