Eduardo Kobra is attempting to set the world record for the largest mural created by a single person. Coinciding with Rio’s 2016 Olympic games, the Brazilian street artist has painted a mural on a vast 190-meter-long wall in the city’s formerly run-down port area. Reaching a total height of 15.5 meters, and measuring an area of almost 3,000 square meters, the work illustrates five faces from five continents — a theme which responds to the olympic rings.
