Mural Etnias


Mural Etnias, titled "Todos somos um" (We are all one), is a 15-meter-tall, 170-meter-long panel painted by artist Eduardo Kobra on a former warehouse for the 2016 Olympics.

It depicts five tribes from five continents — the Huli of New Guinea, the Mursi of Ethiopia, the Kayin of Myanmar and Thailand, the Sámi of Lapland, and the Tapajós of Brazil — built from 180 buckets of acrylic paint, 2,800 spray cans, and seven hydraulic lifts.

On August 22, 2016, Guinness World Records recognized the roughly 2,600-square-meter mural as the largest graffiti painting in the world.
