A daily photo from Ōtautahi, Christchurch, New Zealand
These blue shadow people are being painted on the boarded up shops in New Regent street (the few that did not get renovated). They are part of a project called ‘Frieze: Stand in the Sun’ by local artist artist Jeremy Sauzier.

Christchurch is definitely blessed to have artists such as Jeremy. There’s a few boarded up shops in my hometown albeit not due to earthquakes etc., and with what is called ‘art’ painted upon them but nothing anywhere close to the quality and eye appeal of Jeremy’s work!
