Sardinia, Italy recently hosted the Murartista Street Art Festival, which drew plenty of creative talent to the beautiful Mediterranean island.

ROA’s monochromatic-toned mural aligns with the graffiti artist’s distinct animal themes and features a black-and-white boar that faces a boar skull it is attached to by rope.
