Celebrating 18th birthday, street artist Tvboy draws superhero murals for Yamal

Just a few hours before Yamal turns 18, Italian street artist Tvboy portrays him as a superhero on the streets of Barcelona. In his latest work, Tvboy portrays Yamal as a symbol of inspiring a new generation: he wears Superman costumes and is accompanied by powerful slogans: When the will is strong, the obstacles become small.

This mural is not only to celebrate Yamal's adulthood, but also to celebrate everything he has on and off the court.

Tvboy said: "Yamar is a very young guy who has achieved many achievements, but he also represents a new Spain, a Spain made up of immigrant descendants. He represents not only the younger generation, but also a more inclusive young generation. He was born here, like the children of many other people who come here to work. It's also a message against racism. As a player, I like his free and unrestrained style and it can be seen that he enjoys it on the court. As a person , I was surprised that he was so mature at such a young age. He was always modest and gave credit to the team. Not as self-centered as some other players. "

For the huge 'L' in the center of the outfit Yamal wore in the graffiti, Tvboy said: "I wanted to do something related to his birthday. I thought about putting on the '18', but the next day it was out of date. So I thought about putting on the 'L' that stands on the 'L', which is more eternal. He is a champion and will stay here forever."

Talking about himself The day I saw Yamal, Tvboy said, "It was at an event, I needed to give him a painting. I realized that they were kids after all. We idealized him as a superhero, but he was just an 18-year-old who needed to live his own life. At that moment, I felt like a kid." For Frick, Tvboy praised, "I feel that he embodies the same values as Yamal: modesty, decent and hard work. He made a very positive change for the club. I was from the outsider's perspective. Du said, but I think he interprets Barcelona's values well. I also like players like Pedri and Garvey, who come from the youth training camp and are very young. I really like this betting on the new generation. "

Tvboy has lived in Barcelona for many years and considers himself Barcelona's adopted son. He said: "I've experienced this wonderful season for the team. I'm happy with the way the team plays, and even if they lose to Inter, they have played a wonderful game. This is the most important thing: enjoy the game."
