IZ Tribute in Bogotá

The MDC (Mientras Duermen Crew) painted a series of beautiful, sophisticated and incredibly
detailed wild style pieces as a tribute to IZ the WIZ. The pieces were painted on a long wall
surrounding an apartment complex. Apparently cops tried to stop the productions but the residents
protested so the artists were allowed to continue.
