Westprememural project 2.

2022. Jul. 1. | Community

To the delight of many, the Westprememural project, which was a great success last year, continued, where the symbol of Veszprém, King Szent István and Queen Gizella, the first Hungarian royal couple, was immortalized.

The creators are Gergely Ozsváth (Mentha) and his cousin Tamás Ozsváth, who are previous they also worked on murals and recently played together in Győr, but if we go back a long way, they already painted together when they were children. Among many other reasons, they loved this project.

In the center of the painting are the iconic statues of the royal couple, and behind them are the defining parts of Veszprém such as the castle, the Viaduct, the húszas and the Haszkóvó housing estates. – the latter gave place to both of their mural paintings.

The rest of the picture is for everyone to decide for themselves, some people associate it with heaven or even see Atlantis in it - it's easy anyway, we are actually walking in the Tethys-Ocean 230 million years ago in Veszprém, Mentha tells us.

Just like the first mural, this one is also made with mixed media, painted with a small paint-blowing machine. This was not used before, so this time the guys innovated it a bit.

The painting blooms on the wall of the residential building at Munkácsy Mihály utca 3 in the Haszkovó housing estate, not far from the first mural.

The city of Veszprém can already boast two huge mural paintings, so if they continue at this pace, it will become an increasingly popular place for visitors in terms of street art.

The Westprememural project 2. was realized with the cooperation of the Lélektér Foundation and the support of the Veszprém-Balaton 2023 European Capital of Culture.

Colors Underground – The Iváncsa Underpass Gets a New Lease on Life

For a long time, the underpass at the Iváncsa train station was just another one of those familiar, functional, yet impersonal spaces. A place people pass through but don’t linger in. Today, however, it offers a completely different experience: colors, shapes, and stories accompany travelers along the way. The decoration is not only a visual renewal but also an imprint of a community-oriented vision—the identities of three towns converge here with László Varga’s unique perspective.

Adam Illes – Reflections

His work titled *Reflections*, installed on the wall of Stratford Junction, explores a theme that is both personal and universal: connection. Not an encounter in the superficial sense, but that rare and elusive moment when two people truly see one another.

When Paint Turns to Glass – Glass Angel

Street art is often about quick gestures and raw energy, but there are works that speak more of patience, precision, and a carefully constructed visual experience. CSM’s work titled “Glass Angel” is the final piece in a four-part mural series that not only posed a serious technical challenge but also holds personal significance for the artist. The transparency of the glass symbolizes fragility, the angel represents beauty and love, while the dark and light tones in the background symbolize the duality of the world.
