NEVERCREW's 'Souvenir' Mural in Vienna Presents Nature as Disassembled Model Kit
In April 2026, NEVERCREW will present a mural named 'Souvenir' in Vienna, Austria, as part of the Klima Biennale Wien. This artwork reimagines a residential structure as a plastic model kit, showcasing a prominent blue bear alongside animal heads, fragments of landscapes, and a floating ice piece. It serves as a commentary on the tendency to deconstruct and reconstruct nature. The biennale, themed 'Unspeakable Worlds,' will incorporate established street art production methods, organized by KunstHausWien. The Calle Libre Festival, which has been active since 2014, oversees artist coordination and execution for significant projects. Previous works have tackled issues like migration, inequality, and environmental challenges, highlighting the conflict between institutional frameworks and grassroots expression.
