Despilante: draw penises around potholes for them to repair them | Chronic

An anonymous street artist nicknamed "Wanksy"He decided to denounce the bad state of the streets in his neighborhood, Manchester, England, and the way he chose to show his claim was very strange: I paint penises around potholes.

Therefore, in the Middlesbrough avenues, phallic symbols could be seen. Two days later, the City Council of this city realized the appearance of these drawings and ordered his repair team, already present in the area, to repair the ornate potholes.

According to what a neighbor in the area reportedly told the BBC media, the potholes had been there for over a year and he added: "The power of the darnel"

Nicholson, who shared the photo of a patch posted on Facebook, said they had appeared two years ago, but that they only became problematic about a year ago. According to local media, it is when a friend of the artist fell off his bike that he decided to act.

In addition, he mentioned that he did not know who painted the penis, but he expressed his relief: "It was time for something to be done with all Middlesbrough's potholes".

A spokesman for the Council said: "Middlesbrough, like all local authorities in the country, has problems with potholes and repairs are made in priority, depending on the risk they represent for road users."

"However, we are currently performing the planned work in the Acklam area and the staff was able to visit the nearby Fane Grove site when we were informed of this problem and we repaired it in the hole."the official has finished.
