Pedro Campiche AKA Corleone
Pedro Campiche or AKA Corleone is another Lisbon local. The city loves his multi-coloured murals. And he works with communities to create public art.
See his Fernando Pessoa-inspired mural in Graça. It's part of an apartment building. And the building's residents collaborated on it.
Tom Davis who lives in the building explains.
“Our building is visible all over the city. So it's an ideal space for public art. Some kids had already tagged the wall. And damaged cars in the process. So when the building was up for renovation, we approached a few Lisbon street artists. AKA Corleone stood out. He lived locally. Plus he'd always wanted to paint this wall. So, together with Vhils’ Underdogs Gallery, a mural was born.'
The Fernando Pessoa mural's visible from several Miradouros. It's on Rua Damasceno Monteiro. AKA Corleone’s work is also in Rua Sao Bento and Rua 1 Maio.
