Last month’s Polanco Graffestival featured the work of internationally renowned graffiti artists Cekis and Finok, among many others. The event, which took place in Valparaíso, Chile, works from a social and artistic perspective, aiming to transform public spaces with the help of large-scale murals. It is the first Latin American graffiti festival, hosting an array of artists from Chile and beyond. This year, there were 31 of them scattered throughout the city.

12oz blogger Finok was invited to this year’s festival and shared some photos of the event on his blog. Check them out here.

A shout-out from Finok: “Thanks to Isi, Nelson Rivas, Reks y otros. Viva Chile.”
