#FISHERMAN=#Asian in S Korea....
In #Busan, South #Korea's second largest city, #German #artist #Hendrik #Beikrich (aka ECB) has finished #painting #Asia's tallest #mural. The a 230-foot high #portrait of a wrinkled, albeit proud, #fisherman sits in stark contrast to the gleaming Daniel Libeskind-designed building Haeundae I’Park, in the background.

South Korea has seen rapid growth and an influx of wealth over the last couple of decades, yet there is still a wide income gap. Beikrich's fisherman represents the majority of the population who has not yet benefitted from the country's economic boom and is still living under harsh conditions.
