Fat Heat presents // Reborn - Hungarian street art in London
Commissioned by the Hungarian Cultural Centre, London in association with Global Street Art, Hungarian visual artist Fat Heat created the mural Reborn in September 2020 at Alf Barret Playground (32 Old Gloucester St, Holborn, WC1N 3AD).
The mural, which warps around the playground, highlights the transformation and renewal of nature. The design is a metaphor for the regime change in Hungary 30 years ago when the nation was reborn after decades of Soviet Communist oppression.
A careful observer may notice some of the plants resembling the famous flag used in the 1956 Revolution, with a hole in the middle. The symbol was born as freedom fighters cut out the communist coat of arms form the Hungarian flag of the time in protest.
