Residents of Rocinha in Brazil are ready for a festival of football after reviving the tradition of creating street art to express their pride and identity. A 200-meter stretch of the main street through the favela has been painted with help from our Coral brand. Located in Rio de Janeiro, around 30 artists (including Leandro Piovesan and Nobru Werneck) were involved in the project – part of a campaign to celebrate the spirit of community – which joyfully demonstrates the country’s passion for football.
