Coronavirus has affected the whole world. People are anxious, and the streets are empty. Well, almost empty. When it comes to the streets, you can only expect one group to roam and stay loyal to them, and they are the street artists. The explanation’s quite simple: even in more peaceful times, these rogues are no strangers to risks, such as the law, and now it’s no different. Also, they wore facemasks before it was “cool.” In times where all the galleries and museums are closed, the streets have become the canvas for public imagination. Let’s take a look at how street artists around the world have interpreted the situation.

tRump pandemic... Yes I know he didn't cause it but his complete failure as a leader and decent person is making it much worse, very much worse, than it had to be. Lies and misinformation in times like this cause more pain, death, and heartache so yeah it's the tRump Pandemic.

Trump doesn’t care about his country as long as he is in power he’s happy with what’s going on

This is the favourite one,, the orange idiot is definitely a virus, I hope someone can come up with a way of stopping his unbelievable destruction of not only the Americas (South and North) but he's even trying to spread his ways of how things should be into other countries. He's just a big headed business creep who knows nothing about compassion or humanity, a huge orange mess full of hot air and b******t..

How is it that someone could be so stupid to put Trump there instead of Xi? Or is it simply Chinese propaganda?

Hating Trump does not mean one MUST love China, it just means one loves our fellow human beings more than we love money. Something apparently incomprehendable for a lot of Americans, despite being oh so religious, except when it comes to "loving thy neighbor"

This is so wrong. This wasn't Trump's fault. This was China. China did this.

It wasn't china's fault. It was just some random person who ate a bat. He/she just happened to be from China. If some American ate some weird food and a Chinese person said 'This was America. America did this' it would be a very different conversation

I think Europeans hate Trump and love Xi because Xi reminds them of the good old days when their ancestors murdered 6 million Jews. (Yes, ALL of your ancestors were either part of it or watched. You only cared when Hitler invaded your countries, THEN you minded.) Xi is just a modern day Nazi. It would be terrible if the Americans spoiled all their fun like they did back in the 1940's

From the artist's Instagram:
"We all are going through this together. There is a reason which we will see after all. It’s time to look at ourselves. Take a look at what are we doing with the planet and our lifetime. Maybe we should change our priorities? Maybe we should slow down? Maybe we should take a look around and start respect our planet and all those with whom we share it? Maybe someone is trying to hide some changes? Or economic collapse? Maybe one more step to a new world order?"

Denial for months certainly didn't help keep people safe, and now they deny that they were denialists.... a familiar pattern for this administration.
