Get past the terrible traffic in South Florida and you’ll see a world of wonder on the walls of “The Capital of Latin America”, aka Miami. Buildings lining the highways are decorated with bright colors and fun fruit from artists like Britto and ATOMIK – the playful and carefree images invite visitors to the closest thing America has to offer to a Caribbean retreat.
The Wynwood neighborhood is covered in graffiti tradition. The famous Wynwood Walls is a public spectacle and destination where graffiti is applauded and protected.
